Isack Hadjar is a French-Algerian racing driver competing in Formula One for Racing Bulls. Born on September 28, 2004, in Paris, he began his motorsport career in karting, quickly ascending to single-seater competitions. In his debut season of single-seaters, he clinched the championship, and in his second season, he secured a top-three finish in the championship standings.
Prior to joining Formula One, Hadjar competed in various racing series, including the FIA Formula 2 Championship, where he achieved notable performances, including a victory at the Sprint race in Zandvoort.
His impressive performances led to his promotion to Formula One with Racing Bulls for the 2025 season.
Unfortunately, Hadjar’s Formula One debut at the 2025 Australian Grand Prix was marred by a crash during the formation lap. Attempting to warm his tires on the wet track, he lost control and collided with the wall, resulting in damage that prevented him from starting the race. He was visibly upset after the incident, and Anthony Hamilton, father of seven-time World Champion Lewis Hamilton, was seen consoling him.
