Alex Albon is a 22 year old Thai-British racing driver who has raced in many series and became part of the Red Bull Junior programme in 2012. However, his most recent adventure is Formula e in which he has just signed for Formula e team Nissan e.dams for next season, which is due to start this December in Saudi Arabia.
Although, Albon may have to put a pause on his Formula e career to join the Formula 1 grid for the 2019 season, due to the lack of Red Bull Junior drivers with Super licences. Therefore, Albon is looking increasingly likely to join Daniil Kvyat at Toro Rosso next season.
If Alex does get the Toro Rosso seat for 2019, this would mean that Sergey Sirotkin is no longer in the running for the Italian team's seat. Moreover, this would mean the Russian would be out of the sport, as Esteban Ocon is looking increasingly likely to move to Williams Racing, alongside George Russell, for 2019.
