Congratulations to Stoffel Vandoorne!
Next season, there will be once again a Belgian in Formula 1. Stoffel Vandoorne (24) will partner up with Fernando Alonso at McLaren in 2017 as Jenson Button steps back. Button will stay with the team, but will assume a different role, acting as a test and development driver next year.
“I want to express my gratitude to everyone at McLaren-Honda”, said Vandoorne. “It’s an enormous honour to become a McLaren-Honda race driver, and I promise to work as hard as any Formula 1 driver ever has before."
