Franco Colapinto, a 21-year-old Argentine driver, made history at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix by finishing in eighth place, marking the first time an Argentine has scored points in Formula 1 since 1982. Starting from ninth, Colapinto faced challenges, including a pit stop strategy that initially dropped him to fifteenth place. However, he showcased resilience by overtaking multiple drivers and benefitting from a crash between Sergio Pérez and Carlos Sainz Jr. The race saw a competitive battle for the podium, with Charles Leclerc and George Russell finishing in second and third, respectively. Red Bull's dominance in Formula 1 is under threat as McLaren leads the Constructors' Championship after Oscar Piastri's win in Azerbaijan, while Ferrari gains momentum with Charles Leclerc's recent performances. Meanwhile, Williams has decided to replace Logan Sargeant with Colapinto, who has shown promise but will not have a full-time seat in 2025 due to the signing of Carlos Sainz.
