There, he finished third in the championship, just behind his teammates Oscar Piastri and Théo Pourchaire, securing his first win along the way.
In 2021, Sargeant made his Formula 2 debut, racing with Carlin. He finished fourth in the 2022 season, just one point behind his teammate Liam Lawson, before receiving the call from Williams in October 2022, cementing his place on the F1 grid.
