This weekend, Sargeant—a native of Lighthouse Point, Florida—will compete in what is essentially his homecoming race: the Miami GrandPrix. Vogue checked in with the 22-year-old phenom ahead of the race.
Lighthouse Point, Florida, is a quiet community situated about halfway between Boca Raton and Fort Lauderdale. It’s a typical upscale enclave along this eastern stretch of the state, where homes have manicured Bermuda grass lawns and luxury rides are parked beneath the palms. Gulf Stream breezes waft over the streets, bearing salt by day and jasmine by night, and it seems like everyone has a boat.
Handsome and wiry, Sargeant is a Formula 1 driver for Williams Racing—the second-winningest F1 team of all time—on the front end of his freshman season, and this weekend, he returns to South Florida to compete in what is essentially his homecoming race: the Miami Grand Prix. What’s more, when Miami goes “lights out”—racing’s term for starting—Sargeant will become the first American driver to compete on American soil in Formula 1 in nearly a decade.
“I am patriotic,” he says. “I love my birth country. I want to represent well and do my best, for sure. And I’m looking forward to Miami, then Austin and then Las Vegas”—a new stop on the F1 circuit in 2023. “But regarding the added expectations at home, I’m not directly thinking about that responsibility so much. It’s more about driving to the best of my ability, knowing what I am doing is right, and putting in the effort to do everything I can.

The United States Grand Prix in Austin, Texas, will follow in October, and the inaugural Heineken Silver Las Vegas Grand Prix will bring up the rear in November. Sergio Perez and Max Verstappen are currently pegged as the drivers to watch (or maybe even bet on) headed into this weekend, with both of the Red Bull-sponsored pair having two wins across this season's first four F1 races.
