Isaac Hadjar in the points again with seventh at the 2025 Formula 1 Spanish Grand Prix.

 

Hot on the heels of his best F1 result to date with sixth in Monaco the previous weekend, rookie driver Hadjar again drove a smart and controlled race to finish in seventh place and score six important points for both himself and the team. The 20-year-old now sits ninth in the Drivers’ Standings with 21 points. Liam Lawson just missed the points in the second Racing Bulls car in 11th.

From our side, it was a very strong race. Despite spending a lot of it in traffic, we had good speed and were overtaking cars, so it was working out. We ended up in the wrong position and missed the Safety Car line by half a second because everyone in front of us boxed. To be that close after all the work we did in the race is really unfortunate. As we look ahead to Canada, we’ll build on the positives of our great race pace. Points are always the goal.

I’m pleased with today’s race. It was a strong performance and almost perfect, something the whole team can be proud of. I enjoyed the first stint, though it’s a shame Nico got us right at the end. Our strategy was perfect; the pace on the medium tyre was strong, and it helped us clear the midfield. We had some great battles on track. We made the right call to box for softs when we did. I’m confident in the car and pushing it to its limits at every race. As a team, we’re definitely heading in the right direction. I couldn’t have asked for a better triple-header, scoring points in every race.

I’m looking forward to carrying this momentum into Canada.

It was a very strong weekend here in Barcelona. A huge thank you to the team here and back at the factory. As we come to the end of a triple header, it’s been three times in Q3 and three times in the points for us, so it’s been mega. There’s been lots of progress compared to this time last here in Spain, where we weren’t very fast, but this year the car was strong, and we could fight at the top of the midfield for most of the race; the safety car at the end mixed things up a bit, but we gained some very good points. An incredible performance from Isack across the whole weekend, yesterday in Q3 and out there killing it on track today. Liam was stuck in some traffic after a slightly slower qualifying yesterday, but he was fast, making some perfect moves and getting back to a very good pace. We started this triple header in P8 in the Constructors’ Championship, and we’re leaving it in P6. It’s only the beginning of the fight, though, and we still have a lot of work to do. We know we will have two very strong cars in Canada, but it’ll be tough to maintain our position. We’ll keep our heads down and continue to push so we can stay in the game and keep challenging some of the big teams.
