Yuki Tsunoda will race for Red Bull-owned AlphaTauri next season to become Formula One's first Japanese driver since 2014, the team announced on Wednesday.
Tsunoda, who replaces Russian Daniil Kvyat, finished third in this year's Formula Two Championship with seven podiums and victories in two feature races and a sprint race.
The 20-year-old will be the first driver born in or after 2000 to race for a Formula One team.
