Alexander Albon has chosen #23 as his permanent Formula 1 race number. At the start of a driver’s career in the series, they pick a number that will stay on their car throughout their F1 career, although the reigning world champion has the option to choose #1.
In the 2019 FIA entry list that was released last month, Albon was the only driver to not have a race number featured beside his name. However, Toro Rosso has now confirmed that the Thai-British driver will use 23 as his number.
Albon joins the Red Bull junior outfit alongside Daniil Kvyat, who makes his return.
