MILTON KEYNES, England (AP) — Isack Hadjar will team up with his childhood hero Max Verstappen at Red Bull next year after an impressive rookie season, while Yuki Tsunoda loses his Formula 1 seat following a tough season.

Also, Arvid Lindblad will debut for Racing Bulls.

French driver Hadjar is rewarded for a debut campaign which has seen him regularly outpace teammate Liam Lawson at Racing Bulls. The highlight so far was Hadjar's third-place finish at the Dutch Grand Prix, which made him the fifth youngest podium finisher in F1 history.

“It’s an awesome move, to work with the best and learn from Max is something I can’t wait for,” Hadjar said in a statement.

Lindblad will be the only rookie driver on the grid next year as the F2 driver takes Hadjar's old Racing Bulls seat.
