In a sport like Formula 1, you\u2019d think that age plays an important part in how reaction times and experience influence performance on the track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, that\u2019s not exactly true. The current driver roster in F1 starts at age 22 and ends at age 41, so a 19-year age range. You\u2019ll notice that age is just a number in terms of performance in a race car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here\u2019s the complete list:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Quite a big age difference between some of the contestants, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n It seems that the youngest debut belongs to Max Verstappen at 17 years old, while the oldest belongs to Nyck de Vries at 27.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Zhou Guanyu is also the first Chinese driver on the current grid, and it's his second season already. He's one of the exciting talents alongside fellow rookie Logan Sargeant driving for Williams. It's unlikely that either of them will get a first victory but they seem like they'll become great Formula 1 drivers in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We should also mention Daniel Ricciardo who didn't make the roster due to sustaining a broken hand during second practice at the Dutch Grand Prix this year. He was born on July 1st 1989 (34 years old) and he debuted at the 2011 British Grand Prix, when he was 22 years old. An average age for becoming an F1 driver!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Charles Leclerc is also the first Monegasque driver since Olivier Beretta in 1994. At 26 years old, Charles Leclerc is sure to impress alongside teammate Carlos Sainz, even aiming for a win<\/p>\n\n\n\n The oldest driver on the F1 grid is Fernando Alonso, who is 42 years old, a very respectable age to be driving a race car.<\/p>\n\n\n\nName<\/strong><\/td> Current Age<\/strong><\/td> Birthday<\/strong><\/td> Current Team<\/strong><\/td> Race Debut<\/strong><\/td> Age at Debut<\/strong><\/td><\/tr> Oscar Piastri<\/td> 23<\/td> Born on 6 April 2001<\/td> McLaren<\/td> 2023 Bahrain Grand Prix<\/td> 21<\/td><\/tr> Logan Sargeant<\/td> 23<\/td> Born on 31 December 2000<\/td> Williams<\/td> 2023 Bahrain Grand Prix<\/td> 22<\/td><\/tr> Yuki Tsunoda<\/td> 23<\/td> Born on 11 May 2000<\/td> AlphaTauri<\/td> 2021 Bahrain Grand Prix<\/td> 20<\/td><\/tr> Lando Norris<\/td> 24<\/td> Born on 13 November 1999<\/td> McLaren<\/td> 2019 Australian Grand Prix<\/td> 19<\/td><\/tr> Zhou Guanyu<\/td> 24<\/td> Born on 30 May 1999<\/td> Alfa Romeo<\/td> 2022 Bahrain Grand Prix<\/td> 22<\/td><\/tr> Lance Stroll<\/td> 25<\/td> Born on 29 October 1998<\/td> Aston Martin<\/td> 2017 Australian Grand Prix<\/td> 18<\/td><\/tr> George Russell<\/td> 26<\/td> Born on 15 February 1998<\/td> Mercedes<\/td> 2019 Australian Grand Prix<\/td> 21<\/td><\/tr> Charles Leclerc<\/td> 26<\/td> Born on 16 October 1997<\/td> Ferrari<\/td> 2018 Australian Grand Prix<\/td> 20<\/td><\/tr> Max Verstappen<\/td> 26<\/td> Born on 30 September 1997<\/td> Red Bull Racing<\/td> 2015 Australian Grand Prix<\/td> 17<\/td><\/tr> Esteban Ocon<\/td> 27<\/td> Born on 17 September 1996<\/td> Alpine<\/td> 2016 Belgian Grand Prix<\/td> 19<\/td><\/tr> Alex Albon<\/td> 28<\/td> Born on 23 March 1996<\/td> Williams<\/td> 2019 Australian Grand Prix<\/td> 22<\/td><\/tr> Pierre Gasly<\/td> 28<\/td> Born on 7 February 1996<\/td> Alpine<\/td> 2017 Malaysian Grand Prix<\/td> 21<\/td><\/tr> Nyck de Vries<\/td> 29<\/td> Born on 6 February 1995<\/td> AlphaTauri<\/td> 2022 Italian Grand Prix<\/td> 27<\/td><\/tr> Carlos Sainz<\/td> 29<\/td> Born on 1 September 1994<\/td> Ferrari<\/td> 2015 Australian Grand Prix<\/td> 20<\/td><\/tr> Kevin Magnussen<\/td> 31<\/td> Born on 5 October 1992<\/td> Haas F1 Team<\/td> 2014 Australian Grand Prix<\/td> 21<\/td><\/tr> Sergio Perez<\/td> 34<\/td> Born on 26 January 1990<\/td> Red Bull Racing<\/td> 2011 Australian Grand Prix<\/td> 21<\/td><\/tr> Valtteri Bottas<\/td> 34<\/td> Born on 28 August 1989<\/td> Alfa Romeo<\/td> 2013 Australian Grand Prix<\/td> 23<\/td><\/tr> Nico Hulkenberg<\/td> 36<\/td> Born on 19 August 1987<\/td> Haas F1 Team<\/td> 2010 Bahrain Grand Prix<\/td> 22<\/td><\/tr> Lewis Hamilton<\/td> 39<\/td> Born on 7 January 1985<\/td> Mercedes<\/td> 2007 Australian Grand Prix<\/td> 22<\/td><\/tr> Fernando Alonso<\/td> 42<\/td> Born on 29 July 1981<\/td> Aston Martin<\/td> 2001 Australian Grand Prix<\/td> 19<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n Who Is the Oldest F1 Driver in 2023?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
