Lindblad has been marked out as a potential future star by Red Bull since he was 12 years old.<\/p>\n
Discussing the company’s young driver programme, Red Bull motorsport adviser Helmut Marko said last year that Lindblad “looks really promising”, praising his “pure speed”.<\/p>\n
Red Bull have been working since last year to ready Lindblad for a potential F1 debut in 2026. They planned a programme for this season that would earn him enough points to secure an F1 ‘superlicence’, which is needed to race in grands prix.<\/p>\n
He has completed two runs in F1 practice sessions, at the British and Mexico City Grands Prix.<\/p>\n
Marko said: “In one of the Formula 3 races [at Silverstone in 2024], he overtook, in one lap, I don’t know, 10 or 14 other drivers. He won the race from being last in these tricky conditions, wet, dry and so on.<\/p>\n
“If I look back, I met him first in Portimao (in Portugal). Portimao have a very attractive go-kart circuit and we had a Formula 1 race and I met him and his father. And it was Arvid who was leading the conversation, with 12 years (of age) or so. So that also was something which is not normal.<\/p>\n
“But he had a clear vision and a clear way how to achieve it. And since then he moved steadily forward.”<\/p>\n
Lindblad has won two races in F2 this year and is sixth in the championship heading into the final round in Abu Dhabi this weekend.<\/p>\n
He was born and grew up in Virginia Water in Surrey and is managed by Britain’s Formula E world champion Oliver Rowland.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
