Logan Sargeant was one of the last confirmations for the 2023 F1 grid, but opts for the first available number. The American will appear at the start in Bahrain with car number two.

Sargeant chooses winning song

Williams announced this on Twitter. Via a tweet, they introduced LS2 to the world. In doing so, Alexander Albon's new teammate chooses the first available number. Indeed, number one can only be chosen by the reigning world champion, and in 2023 that will again be Max Verstappen.

In a press statement, the American reveals, "I used this number in Formula Renault and I had a very good season that year. Number three is actually my number, but it is already taken. So why shouldn't I choose a winning starting number from my past to use in F1?"
