Red Bull have confirmed Isack Hadjar will remain as Max Verstappen's team-mate for the 2027 Formula 1 season.

Hadjar stepped up to Red Bull at the start of this year after an impressive debut campaign with Racing Bulls in 2025 but has missed the last three rounds due to a wrist injury he suffered during last month's summer break.

But the 21-year-old is now fit enough to drive and is back at this weekend's Azerbaijan Grand Prix, which takes place on Saturday - live on Sky Sports F1.

Red Bull had already announced last month that four-time world champion Verstappen signed a new contract to stay at the team until at least the end of 2030.

"We're very excited to continue our journey with Isack. Since joining us at the start of the year, he has been superb on and off track, especially considering this is only his second Formula 1 season, which made extending his contract an easy decision," said Red Bull team principal Laurent Mekies.

"From the very beginning, Isack immersed himself in the team, spending every minute at the factory with his engineers to develop the car, always eager to learn and improve.

"You could see from that first weekend in Melbourne that he handled the step up with remarkable composure and had earned his place in this seat."
