Hadjar to make racing return with Red Bull at Azerbaijan GP

Red Bull Racing has confirmed that Isack Hadjar will return to racing alongside Max Verstappen at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix. Hadjar has been sidelined since the Hungarian Grand Prix in July after sustaining a wrist injury during summer training. Following a period of rehabilitation, he has been officially declared fit to compete at the Baku City Circuit.

Hadjar's return prompts Liam Lawson to move back to Visa Cash App Racing Bulls after serving as his interim replacement for three races, while Yuki Tsunoda resumes reserve duties. The Azerbaijan Grand Prix schedule will run earlier than usual, with Free Practice beginning on Thursday to avoid clashing with the national Remembrance Day on September 27.
