The newest member of the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team driver squad, Jak Crawford, will experience F1 machinery for the first time when he drives the AMR22 at the Red Bull Ring in Austria on 5 June.

The test marks the next step on the 19-year-old's motorsport journey. Having joined the team earlier this year, Jak is dovetailing a Formula 2 campaign with the Aston Martin Aramco Young Driver Development Programme, which is designed to prepare drivers for competing at the highest levels of motorsport.

As part of the programme, Jak has been engaging in activities such as fitness work, media training, frequent driver-in-the-loop simulator sessions at the AMR Technology Campus and also gained valuable experience by joining us at Grands Prix throughout the year to learn more about how an F1 race team operates.

Jak's F1 test in Austria follows a Formula E test in Berlin earlier this month and is the next step in his learning and development as we continue to nurture his talent and grow his experience.

"Testing with Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team is more than just a dream come true; it's an important and exciting step on my motorsport journey," said Jak ahead of his on-track debut with the team.

"I'm incredibly grateful for this chance to drive an F1 car, learn more from the team and push myself even further. I want to say a massive thank you to Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team for believing in me and providing this opportunity.

"I can't wait to hit the track in Austria on 5 June."
