How Isack Hadjar injured his wrist during F1 2026 summer break

Isack Hadjar, a driver for Red Bull Racing, sustained a wrist injury while training during the 2026 Formula 1 summer break, which forced him to miss several races, including the Dutch Grand Prix. The injury was later confirmed to be a small fracture on the outside of his wrist, and he followed the advice of MotoGP star Marc Marquez to sit out additional races for recovery.

Hadjar's return to racing was marked by a podium finish in Baku, where he expressed relief at being back on track. He acknowledged the need for caution in future training, particularly in boxing, which was linked to his injury. The recovery process for wrist injuries can be lengthy, and Hadjar is expected to experience discomfort for some time as he resumes racing activities.
