- Logan Sargeant is the first American F1 driver to score points in Formula 1 in 30 years. He currently drives for Williams Racing, but his F1 journey wasn't easy. He moved to Europe at the age of 12, became the Karting World Champion, and never looked back.

I feel bad for him. They always broadcast his team radios conversations right after he messes up. He sounds so depressed every race. Poor kid.
Yeah, he does sound a little defeated in the radio😢
You gotta feel a little more bad for all of them drivers who never got a chance in F1 though, at least he got to live his dream, racing in F1 must be an experience uncomparible to anything else, and he even managed to get another years contract. Im actually happy for the guy! Im sure there are plenty great moments as well for him that we dont get to see ^^
This is the pinnacle of Motorsport, I would feel bad for him of his failures weren’t his fault, but 99% of the time it is his fault
Good the see some light shed on Logan's history. It tough luck for Logan since he's just getting used to F1 on the better 2023 Williams but need to prove himself on the worse 2024 car. The improved Yuki and Haas performance made it harder for Williams to fight for points left by Stroll.
Logan's history is an American driver that got into F1 only because of his nationality and somehow doesn't receive nearly as much hate as Latifi who did statistically better both against Russell and Albon (also wrecked less cars, again, statistics).
He just sucks, def not good enough for F1. Hes costing the team waay to much money and ruins way to much sessions with al the dumb crashes.NEXTT!!!
As an American (I live in Florida as well), I gotta love Logan. I really hope to see him score some points this season. Williams is a mess right now, but they’re on the come up.
As an American, I couldn't care less about him. We have much better drivers.
Typical American supports the American not because they’re good at what they’re doing but because they’re American lol Americans can stay the Fk out of f1 you’re all shit
@@gianni_schicchi well, it’s look like he might get canned before the summer break. We’ll see.
@@gianni_schicchi As a european, I cant agree more on this. Shame though, id love to see some american masterclass in F1, but both Haas and Logan aint giving u guys the representation of what u guys are truly capable of and deserve! Really hoping for andretti in the near future!
He will eventually. If albon could stop canning the car in practice Williams can actually develop the car
First of all im german. And im glad somebodys talking about him without the Intention of making fun or hating on him. Like i said a couple of times, we need to be patient. Ppl calling him off after 4 races, same with riccardo or james. We drove 4 races, let thouse people figure it out and change. But ppl tend to make it difficult for thouse drivers and ceos. It feels like the f1 comunity is like the alpine ceo, if we dont win tomorrow than your fired, everyone knows you cant becomme a champion winning team in 2 yrs. It takes time. So it also takes time for drivers te figure stuff out and change.
4 races? Seems like you didn't watched the 22 of the previous season.
Dude hasn't improved by an inch, he had his chance and didn't took it, time to move on.
F1 isn't a place where you need to learn, as Jacques Villeneuve said, either you're ready or you're not and he clearly isn't.
Totally disrespectful for guys like Pourchaire and Lawson.
@@quentinhirschfeld9382 shut up, he improved over 2022, nearly beat alex at the end. he is mid in the gap to his teammate, everyone only crys because its at the back and not at the front where it goes under, in the end he even drove into q3 with alex. I think you didnt watched 2023
@@Jasongilliar
1) If you wanna debate me, stay polite.
2) Sargeant was 1 second slower than Albon in qualifying and his pace was pathetic on the hards in China.
He had a terrible weekend pace wise as late as a week ago, so when you tell me he's improving, it makes me laugh.
Dude is 33-0 ahgainst Albon in qualifying with an average Gap of over half a second and hasn't beat him in any race, keeps making huge mistakes as well.
Latifi did better against Russell and Albon.
@@quentinhirschfeld9382nigga this is a youtube comment section not 6th grade debate class
@@Jasongilliaryou mean that one of the two q3s he was in where he crashed out without setting a proper lap? That one?
i love videos where people arent just hating on him. he's a good driver. he's f1 talent. he just needs to improve his qualifying pace and the results will show. alex is obviously the better driver but if logan can put his qualifying and race pace closer to that of alex he will excel. even in china he was really close to alex's pace and it wasn't until his time penalty (which was a dumb call by the fia) that he fell off. he needs motivation
Yeah, that penalty in China was just baffling. The stewards these days are just handing out penalties strictly according to the rules and are not even considering logical exceptions. It's so dumb.
i understand some penalties, but the stewards have been getting worse and worse, logan’s penalty and alonso’s australia penalty
@@2argeant
1. If he was F1 material he would've showed it already.
The Williams isn't the easiest car to drive but it isn't perfect for Albon's style made of seamless transitions either.
Bro hasn't beat him in any qualifying session or race (even Latifi managed to beat Russell and Albon fair and square sometimes), nor matched his pace in any circumstances (he was sometimes close, but we're talking about 2 or 3 occasions, his pace on the hards in China was honestly pathetic, he's not improving and keep wrecking cars).
2. You're contradicting yourself, you say he's doing ok, yet you admit that his pace is seriously lacking compared with Albon.
3. We have drivers like Lawson, Pourchaire and Drugovich waiting on the sideline.
He had his chance, but he clearly didn't take it.
Nyck De Vries who did much better and was improving got dropped.
@@quentinhirschfeld9382- Williams can only afford upgrades for Alex's car, so Logan's car is even worse. Also he has less damages caused this season than Alex and has a higher highest finish.
Thing is tho, what more motivation do u need after getting another years chance cuZ the team has faith in u like that
Man I feel bad for Logan. I really wish this season will be better for him but who knows
He's a pay driver, don,'t feel too bad for him.
@@quentinhirschfeld9382 pay driver with no money?
@@quentinhirschfeld9382how is he a pay driver if he couldn't afford F2
@@Hleprr
No money? His family is composed of former professional Nascar drivers and his Uncle is a multi billionaire business man who has ties with the US Military.
His father used some of that fortune to help the racing career of his son.
@@RespectTheLegend
That must be a blatant lie, the dude comes from a wealthy family and got a whole load of sponsorship (+ a push from the political side of the sport who like the US market for some reason) just because of his nationality.
He is the purest definition of a pay driver, well no, i exaggerate, that's Stroll.
Logan could've actually scored some points on the 2024 Japanese Grand Prix, the team most likely had a bad pitstop strategy. I think he might begin to prove everyone wrong in this season. Maybe it's just a matter of time. I am rooting for him :>
He could, if he knew how to managed his tires and didn't binned it into the barrier.
You guys easily forgot he was already about to be overtaken before his disastrous pit stop.
@@quentinhirschfeld9382He didn't hit the barriers during the race. He was very fast both before and after the stop. However, Williams botched the stop and then for some unknown reason switched to a two-stop, despite his tyres being managed suitably for a one-stop. By the time he locked up (at a corner which nearly everyone else locked up at too) the race had already been ruined.
Well said, I completely agree with you.
But there's just one more thing I want to highlight: Sargeant's qualifying performance in F3 and F2. In 2020 at Prema, Sargeant outqualified Piastri 8-1, and also outqualified Vesti 8-1. He outqualified both Piastri and Vesti 7-2. He had a clean-sweep in qualifying against his teammates in 2021 at Charouz (I believe it is pronounced sha-rooz), and then in 2022 he outqualified Lawson 10-4. He does know how to put one lap together in qualifying. I find it difficult to understand why he is struggling so much now.
Having followed his career since 2020, what I gather from him is that he is very quick, but also inconsistent. He is prone to making a few too many errors.
Yes, it's quite surprising that he hasn't found any rhythm in F1 despite being so good in other junior categories. I personally feel like he's losing confidence as he's failing to get close to Alex. And trying to play the safe game isn't getting any results and as soon as he pushes the car, he makes mistakes. Plus, now there's added pressure of avoiding heavy crashes. And the fact that his seat is under threat. All these things are not making his life easy. What he needs is a clean solid weekend and I think that'd boost his confidence. Hopefully he'll be able to carry that momentum into the season.
F1 and promotion formulas is a whole other world mate.
Some drivers seemed great in the juniors but failed miserably in F1, Jan Magnussen is a good example.
It's a confidence game. He just can't seem to find his mojo. Not like Williams have been exactly helpful for him.
before being Piastri Fan. I used to root him in F3. sadly, he wasn't able to proceed to F2 while his mate in Prema became F2 racer. I was so glad he become F1 rookie ❤
Logan deserved his F1 ride by merit. Whether it works out or not is tbd. But I think the fact Williams is the worst team and Albon is a wheelman needs to be taken into consideration…
He got the drive because of his nationality.
He was solid in the juniors, but always out-shone by the others of his generation.
Never would've made it if he wasn't from the US, that's a fact.
He is too far away from Albon and Albon isn't Verstappen.
The only thing that is world class in Albon's style is his steering inputs, everywhere else he's bang average (he also has a massive problem with cars that have oversteer on the turn in, his 2020 season was honestly pathetic).
Sargeant has more potential imo than a guy like Stroll but that's not saying a lot frankly, he should be gone.
@@quentinhirschfeld9382he literally wasn’t. Highest finishing rookie in F2 (ahead of Lawson) and in F3 was equal to Piastri before he got wrecked out of the final race
@@quentinhirschfeld9382 u acting like max didnt dnf each 5 races in his first year. Give the guy sometime lol. Yall acting like he has is not a rookie. The reason why he get to drive it's bc he is in the williams junior program lmao. Not his nationality. Same for lawson why he didnt get a seat. Lawson was in RB junior team and the team didnt have a seat for him to fill in. Yall hating w no research. Logan literally the nicest and most introverted guy on grid why hating?
A fellow Miamian, i feel bad for Logan in every way. 😢
He was spared a Nyck de vries treatment tho
I'm here after finding out his F1 career is over as of today.
Yeah. It's unfortunate it didn't work out for him in F1.
This is a wonderful history and summary video, thanks for making it!
I always liked the guy. But he has to step up this year!
Yep
they should have 1 race per year where they all drive the same car or gokart just to see witch drivers are good
This is a really well put together video. Good job!
Balanced piece. Enjoyed it
Awesome video thanks
if it doesnt work out for logan he will be welcomed with open arms in indy
“WTF IS A KILOMETER”🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅🦅
Any rookie driving for Williams these days is set to fail and never show off their skills. Whatever future brings, Logan will succeed in f1 or other categories
Don't get too far into logans family haha ;)
I can smell the freedom.
He will be demoted from Sargent to Private soon
Good one
logan is the man
I'm a Hispanic American and I'm a Sergio Perez fan first and foremost but I was glad to see an American in Formula 1 since Mario Andretti. It's also a shame that Logan Sargeant hasn't been performing well but one thing I will say is that he's somewhat better than Nicolas Latifi. I mean, that guy has had many, many accidents. About as much as Mick Schumacher and Nikita Mazepin. At least Logan was able to finish races. One highlight from Logan is that he qualified in the points at Spa Francorchamps in the 2023 season.
Cheering for Perez and Sargeant, man...that's some real suffering right there.
@@greatBLT I mean Perez is doing pretty good imo, racking up the podiums
Lol, he wrecked more cars in one season than Latifi in his whole career.
Sadly, sergeants performance just hasn't been up to snuff, and I'd be surprised if he is retained for 2025
If sargeant got 2021 and 2023 instead of only 2022 he would've most likely been an f2 champion and he would've most likely been better in f2
true
i am pretty sure logans dad went no contact with the henry sergeant the 3 uncle?? after some court drama
He gets a bad rap. F1 is brutal and you have to learn really quickly or find another series. Personally I'd love to see him in Indycar but I do hope he can improve in F1.
I bet he's actually good if Williams wasn't a shadow of Mercedes
Hes a good driver but F1 is for the best drivers. He is just not that level.
🦅😭
He will be missed
he needs to train harder and do more sim work and watch more onboard. i watch his onboards and his line choice and shifting points are way behinds albons and the fastest racers. he also needs to ride a road bicycle on the track for 20 miles to understand it.
You probably have no idea what a 'good line' is man.
Drivers like Hamilton, Leclerc or Verstappen don't follow the geometric race line yet they're the best.
He was the guy who caused more financial losses due to accidents in 2023. If he had just finished some races instead of crashing the car, he would have better chances.
Everybody knows that Williams is a disaster and that Dorilton Capital is not investing anything on that team. It took them years to buy an ERP software. A serious investor would buy it in the first year.
Sergeant is the worst driver for the second season in a row? Well, who would have expected... I wonder how long the Americans will continue to deceive themselves that their drivers are not in the 5th league.
I'm too busy deceiving myself by saying that Ferrari is gonna get their shit together and finally challenge Red Bull
Logan Sargeant, YOU ARE A SPORTSCAR DRIVER
Most handsome on the grid
Logan > Leclerc
Carlos Sainz> (looks like a man, contrarily to Logan and Charles who are boyish).
Honestly I don't see his junior carreer success. He didn't win any of the higher series and while he did well it was only in the best teams and he got beaten by his teammates.
How do you not see his junior career success man? If the championship battle goes to the final race, then you can't say one driver did a lot better than the other. And in 2021, he wasn't in the best team, yet got great results. In F2, he was just 1 point behind teammate Liam Lawson and it was Liam's second year in F2. I mean, it seems pretty impressive to me.
@@f1alpaca it's not bad, but why should he be given the seat in F1 and not his countless team mates and opponents who outscored him?
@@Txm_Dxr_Bxss Piastri is on the F1 grid, and Liam Lawson will soon be as well. The thing is, it's not that simple. As I mentioned in the video, it's very expensive to progress through the classes of Formula racing. Some of the other guys didn't even make it to F2, and some even to F3. They currently race in either Le Mans, DTM, or GT series. It's unfortunate for sure, we'll never know how good they could've been in F1, but that's how this sport currently works, sadly. Logan is certainly lucky to be on the F1 grid, as are the other F1 drivers, as they were able to afford racing in junior categories. Logan was a Williams academy driver, so he got the preference, just like Red Bull, Mercedes, and other teams' pick their academy drivers. Ultimately, the teams decide who they want to put in the seat, and for some teams, that decision is influenced by a lot of factors. I hope that answers your question.
I think that williams is a shit team, at least at the moment. I understand their struggles, but you cannot really expect great results from someone who has heavier car than his teammate. You cannot want him to outqualify Albon when you actively get in his way. I hope that Logan is not sighned for williams and goes to haas or something. I do want him to stay in f1, but i understand that it is unlikely at this moment.
I would also like to add that some of his dnfs (cough miami 2024) werent his fault.
The future looks grim.
I mean he still has this season to prove that he deserves to be in F1
RPM mentioned, bigger win than Schumacher and Hamilton's championships combined
Bruh
Dale Coyne Racing in IndyCar awaits hahaha.
Lol
He'll be gone in the summer.
I know his family is rich but if a guy cant go to f2 because he doesnt have enough money how can he be a pay driver
Good point, even though I haven’t seen anyone call him a paid driver.
@@auroratherob0t Everyone calls him that
@@justinburley8659 I mean he couldn’t even afford to get into F2 without getting help from the Williams junior academy, what makes you think he could pay his way into F1.
@@auroratherob0t I know that he’s not a pay driver, but many others assume that he is. I don’t know why though

His family is rich AF, don't know who told you that but it was clearly a lie, the dude got big money.
The alternative of flying home to Miami and living out his days running his father & uncle’s fleet of super yachts for other uber wealthy clients would be a difficult pill to swallow.
Merica
did williams destroyed logan sargeant
Lol his family moved to Switzerland for his carting career…yea okay 😂😂
What the 🦅is a trailbrake!?!?!?
More like unasked story
Yes, but the double standards with Sargeant is still disgusting.
Latifi (outside of the joke) was trashed by everyone, who said he didn't deserved his spot on the grid and it was true.
However, if we compare stats, he did a much better job against Albon (and even Russell, but Logan didn't faced Russell so i won't take it into account) than Sargeant did.
Look at those stats:
2022,
Average qualifying gap: Albon -0.390 over Latifi
Average race pace gap: ALbon -0.265 over Latifi
Qualifying h2h: Albon 19-2 Latifi
Race h2h: Albon 14-1 Latifi when both finished, counting sprint races
Points: Albon 4-2 Latifi
Cost in car damage: latifi 3.3 million
2023 + early 2024,
Average Qualifying GAP: Albon -0.560 over Sargeant
Average Race Pace GAP: Albon -0.222 over Sargeant
Qualifying H2H: Albon 31-0 Sargeant counting Shootout
Race H2H: Albon 19-0 Sargeant when both finished, counting sprint race
Points: Albon 27-1 Sargeant (scored one point less than Latifi with was was objectively a much better car and he did only thanks to questionable disqualification)
Cost in car damage: sargeant 4.3 million
But everybody come explain how Sargeant is doing a much better job than Latifi...
Great work with the stats. Thing is, Logan was a rookie last season, that's why I didn't compare him with Latifi. I think this year would be more representative for the evaluation of his performances
A. He was brought into F1 a year too soon, everyone is like “Oh Piastri and Lawson adapted so well …” well yes but also because they had WAAAY more time in F2 and in the simulator with F1 teams
B. Logan had a slower car than Alex for the most part of 2023. Yes it was due to his mistakes but that is just rookie mistakes and it doesn’t help that Williams doesn’t have the budget for spare parts as we see this year.
C. You’re comparing stats from a 3rd year driver in Latifi in 2022 to a rookie that was brought up prematurely which is just a silly comparison
D. Sargeant is not lacking skill as we saw in the junior formulas that he was right up there in race/title battles Piastri, Drugovitch and Lawson, he’s not just a pay driver like Latifi
2022 was Latifi's third year. It would be more accurate to see how he fared against Russell in 2020.
@@BIGM18
A. Sargeant had years of experience in single seaters, one year in F2 is more than enough if you have the level.
B. Well, yes, but so did Latifi (multiple races in 2022 where he didn't had upgrades).
Still managed to scored 2 points with the worst car of the grid.
C. As i said, Latifi did much better in his rookie season against Russell (who's a better driver than Albon) compared with Logan, i can give you the stats, he was also close from scoring points with what was at the time the slowest car of the grid.
D. Logan came because of his nationality.
He certainly had a solid pedigree and i gave him the befenift of the doubt, but he's not improving at all.
Last race in China his pace was pathetic on the hards.
@@BomberFletch31
As i've said, he did better.
Latifi was closer to Rusell in 2020 compared with Logan and Alex.
Duuude, he is a terrible driver, in the wrong place at the wrong time, has the race smarts of a small sand castle and never ever capitalizes on his opportunities. Thank god he didn't take up skydiving as a sport. Let's face it, not every "great driver and nice guy" is cut out for F1. Right Latifi?
He was jumped into f1 too early imo
@fu5641 and who's is that?
A very positive spin on a very mediocre racing driver.
why don't you add a picture of "apple pie" or maybe "George Washington" or maybe "Betsy Ross" sewing the flag. My God people, give the flag nonsense a rest.
Are F1 drivers usually came from a well off upbringing? Basing from their parents and from the clue that they can all speak english
That is usually the case that the F1 drivers come from a well off upbringing, but there have been exceptions.
Easily the worst driver. Only there cause they want to break into the US market. But cmon surely he is not the best the US can offer.
He's an embarrassment to F1 and the Williams legacy.
How
What are you talking about. It’s his rookie season and the cars sucks.
@@AndreaKimiAntonelli_122nd season. And his car still sucks. Although Albon seems to pull blood from a stone with his car.
He’s a MAGA money kid. Totally a pay driver. He’s not on the grid for skill.
He's not a pay driver and was brought into the Williams academy because of his f3 performances i the worst car on that grid.
The only story about Sargeant is that mummy and daddy are billionaires.
obviously you didnt watch the video lmao
@@akiara8491
The video is full of sh*t tbh, 2 weights 2 measures.
Latifi did statistically better against both Russell and Albon yet got (rightly) trashed, don't know why Sargeant should avoid such a treatment as himself a pay driver.
He was better than Latifi in the junior for sure, but he still made it to F1 thanks to his nationality.
The only story about Sargeant is that he couldn't go up to F2 with Piastri because he had no money.
@@walover165
Lol, he comes from a rich family and attracts enormous sponsor solely because he's American.
Statistically, Latifi has done better against both Russell and Albon in every areas.
Poor kid not such a good team and not so skilled
Wtf is a kilometer - Logan Sargeant
He might be best in indycar
It’s hard to find good American pure blood drivers to place in F1. Karting at age 7 is awesome but karting at age 2 is f*ckin insane. You gotta think how many Americans are born into stuff like that it’s rare.
i remember going hunting or paintballing with logan and his younger brothers glad to see hes still racing
What was Logan like back then? These days he seems a bit shy.
Easy ways to tell this is a lie: Logan only has one brother, who is older.
@@walover165 good work, detective
PIEREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE GASLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
4:28 I thought his family was full of shipping magnates. Or does their corrupt money only go to oil rich countries and not to their talented younger generation?
The richest one is his uncle, a powerful billionaire who accused his father of using their family corporation to fund Logan’s racing career. So his father is not free to fork too much .
Super ypung man wish the best for him❤
LoGOAT
Feels like an Okay driver, imo this guy have the potential to be better than Stroll and his since he still have the motivation to score points.
and the main problem is he kinda forgot he's on F1 car, idk how to explain it, but it reminds me of Grosjean. With his unpredictable results, so stop choking on the track I guess.
If he can handle this I think he can get his pace back and adapt to the car more easily.
and for Williams, man they need to change the head of engineering team, idk.
I feel bad for him whenever he eats shit or catches criticism. He would have needed more time in junior classes.
Logan has shown potential to go in F1 but for the moment in F1 he has not delivered what we can wait of him. He has difficulty on qualification as it is said in the video (generally 3-4 tenth of Albon), it is better in race (1 or 2 tenth of Abon's time).
I think he will lose his place in F1 at the end of the season. He will joi other talented drivers who didn't make it in F1even after great result in junior category. There are a lot of great drivers in this case (Jan Magnussen, Vandoorne, Zonta, Mick Schumacher etc ....). If you like at the positive side, some great drivers has never had the chance to make 2 years in F1 (Drugovich, Pourchaire, Cassidy, Fenestraz etc...)
I wish him to find a place in Indycar, Imsa or Wec.
I hope he turns things around this season, but yeah if he fails, there are a lot of other young talented drivers waiting in line.
Jan Magnussen? Thats Kevins father LOL
Note that Logan came 21st in a 20-car championship. While his partner was in 13th place
Dude wouldn't have even scored any points wasn't for the political BS than wen at the Us GP.
thx good video
