Chosen by Red Bull aged 15. Suddenly launched into his first
Grand Prix as the youngest driver ever, having never driven a
Formula 1 car before. Racing for the Red Bull junior team, Jaime
Alguersuari was expected to win. He was dropped when he didn’t.

Speaking to Tom Clarkson, Jaime looks back at his rapid rise to
Formula 1. From his surprise debut in 2009, the demands of the
Red Bull junior programme, and racing Michael Schumacher, to
turning down the chance to drive a race-winning car days before
losing his place in the sport. Now a DJ and producer, Jaime tells
Tom how music ‘saved his life’ after he left Formula 1.
