• During his 37-race stint with Williams, Sargeant managed one point and was replaced by Franco Colapinto following costly crashes.
• He then tested an Oreca 07 for IDEC Sport and Genesis Magma Racing in the European Le Mans Series before announcing his retirement in January.
• His potential return underscores a growing trend of drivers shifting between Formula 1, endurance racing and North American open-wheel competition.
• Prema principal René Rosin says the team is also evaluating former F1 driver Callum Ilott as an alternative candidate.
• A final decision on Prema’s driver lineup is expected within weeks as it prepares its inaugural IndyCar roster.
