Alex Albon has been awarded the ‘Pilota in Ascesa’ honour ahead of the 2023 Italian Grand Prix.

For over four decades, the Premio Confartigianato Motori, Italian Driving Association, has held an awards ceremony at Monza, with multiple prizes handed out to those within the Formula 1 fraternity.

This year, the voting panel named Alex as the most improved driver of 2023 and our No23 claimed his prize prior to hitting the circuit in FP1

Albono can consider himself in esteemed company, with the likes of Michael Schumacher, Alain Prost, Lewis Hamilton and Sebastian Vettel all previous award winners at this event.

Congratulations, Alex!

Now he has to figure out how to fit this in his hand luggage!
