Hadjar returns in Baku after wrist injury layoff
Isack Hadjar is set to return to the Formula 1 grid at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix after missing three races with a wrist injury. He will use the special helmet design that was originally intended for the Dutch Grand Prix, though he says the injury is still causing pain.
Isack Hadjar will race again this weekend at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, marking his return to the Formula 1 grid after a three-race absence. The Red Bull driver had been sidelined after suffering a wrist injury during the summer break.
Ahead of his comeback in Baku, Hadjar said his wrist is still painful and indicated it is likely to remain so for a while. He has nevertheless recovered sufficiently to get back in the car this weekend.
Hadjar will also debut a special helmet design that had originally been commissioned for the Dutch Grand Prix. Its first use was delayed because of his injury-enforced absence.
