[edit]

ART Grand Prix (2017)

[edit]

In 2017, Albon graduated to theFIA Formula 2 Championship,withART.[18]His teammate for the season would beNobuharu Matsushita,who at the time was also signed as adevelopment driverforMcLaren.He made his debut inBahrain,where he started in 9th place on the starting grid for the feature race and finished 6th. For the sprint race, Albon qualified 3rd on the grid, behindLuca Ghiottoand his teammate, Matsushita. However, mechanical problems forced Matsushita to start from the pitlane promoting Albon to second. Albon struggled for grip for the majority of the race and finished in 7th position.[19]

At theSpanish roundAlbon placed 3rd on the provisional starting grid for the feature race.Charles Leclercled into turn one, but found himself under fire from Ghiotto and Albon after locking up. Leclerc began to pull away from Ghiotto, who began to fall into the clutches of Albon, who subsequently made a move into turn one and took second place from Ghiotto. Leclerc pitted on lap seven, along with Matsushita, leaving Albon with the lead of the race.Sergio Canamasasground to a halt on lap 10 owing to problems with the car. Despite this, he did not pull off the track to retire – instead remaining on the track and gesturing to the marshals asking for a push-start. The dangerous position of the car initially brought out the virtual safety car and eventually, the safety car itself. As the race resumed, Leclerc and Ghiotto began to scythe through the pack.Oliver Rowlandeventually pressured Albon into a mistake to take the lead of the race, although both still had an impending pitstop to make. With the fresh rubber, Albon and Rowland were staging a comeback with both drivers challenging for the podium toward the latter stages of the race, Albon later finished the race in 5th position. In the sprint race, Albon started 4th on the grid and enjoyed a well-fought battle with Leclerc for the majority of the race and after battling for several laps, Leclerc finally passed Albon for fifth place. Later in the race however Albon dropped back, finishing the race in 8th position.

At theMonaco round,Albon qualified second on the grid with a time of 1:19.321 seconds. In qualifying, the grid was separated into two Groups due to safety concerns over the short and tight nature of the circuit. Albon was part of the 'Group B' qualifying and managed to gain the fastest time in that group, only qualifying 12 hundredths of a second behind Leclerc who qualified in Group A. After an aborted start due toAntonio FuocoandSean Gelael's enginesstallingon the grid, Leclerc led into the first corner, followed by Albon. A concertina effect occurred at the Grand Hotel Hairpin as Canamasas was spun, causing Gelael to lose his front wing and bringing out a local yellow. Later in the race, Albon found himself stuck behind the slower movingNorman NatoandJordan King,which eventually caused him to lose places, finishing the race in a disappointing 4th position. In the Sprint Race, Albon started 5th on the grid, and after a very tight race, he dropped back to finish in 6th position. Albon missed theBaku roundof the Championship due to injury. Albon had sustained a broken collarbone whilst out on a mountain biking training ride, and was unable to compete due to the over-the-shoulder seat belts used inFormula 2.[20][21]

Albon was back in action for the fifth round of the championship, stating that his initial feeling on returning to action after breaking his collarbone was "a lot better" than he expected. He confirmed that the bone was still "clearly broken" following an x-ray on the Tuesday before the race weekend, and explained that the main issue he is having in the car is a "numb feeling" from the scar he received during successful surgery after the crash.[22]Albon finished the practice session in 8th, which showed that despite the injury, the chance for his first podium in Formula 2 was a possibility. Albon qualified in 4th for the Feature Race, however, he was later promoted to third on the provisional starting grid afterSérgio Sette Câmarawas disqualified after the qualifying session after failing to provide the required 1 litre fuel sample.[23]Albon finished the Feature Race in 5th position, after losing places to Oliver Rowland and Nicholas Latifi (both racing forDAMS) whose car proved to have a lot of pace. For the Sprint Race, Albon started the race 4th on the grid and managed to move up the grid to clinch his first podium in Formula 2, finishing behindArtem Markelov.He would later score another podium at the sprint race at the season finale inAbu Dhabi,finishing in second after being overtaken by Leclerc on the final lap. He finished 10th in the drivers' championship in his first F2 season, scoring 86 points.

At the next two rounds inBarcelonaandMonaco,Albon took two more pole positions but finished fifth in the feature race in Spain after getting away slowly while in the sprint he finished second behindJack Aitken.In Monaco, however, it was a weekend to forget for the Thai driver, as in the feature race, he collided withNyck de Vriesas he was entering the pitlane, spinning him around in the pitlane entrance, while in the sprint race he collided withCampos'Roy Nissanyapproaching the Nouvelle Chicane.

Another retirement would follow in the feature race atLe Castelletafter he suffered an engine failure. In the sprint race, he finished seventh, one place ahead of Latifi. After finishing fifth in both races at the Red Bull Ring, Albon won the feature race atSilverstone,before collecting two more wins at the sprint race atthe Hungaroring,and the feature race atSochi.A stall on the grid in the feature race at Abu Dhabi ended his title chances; he finished fourteenth in the feature race and eighth in the sprint race, leaving him third in the drivers' championship behind fellow future F1 driversGeorge RussellandLando Norris.
