Red Bull’s Alexander Albon says he is determined to return to the Formula 1 field in 2022 after being demoted to reserve driver this season.
The British-Thai driver has been replaced as Max Verstappen’s team-mate by Mexican Sergio Perez for 2021.
The 24-year-old lost his race seat at Red Bull after a season in which he scored just under half the points of Verstappen and qualified on average about 0.5 seconds slower.
Albon is back-up for Pierre Gasly and rookie Yuki Tsunoda at the Alpha Tauri team in addition to the senior Red Bull outfit.
