Alex Albon Optimistic About Williams Racing’s Future Amid Weight Challenges

Alex Albon, Williams Racing driver, revealed that the team is ready to make significant progress in the upcoming season, but only if the team’s Formula 1 car meets the minimum weight requirement from the start. Williams has struggled to maintain its performance this year, currently occupying ninth place with only two points. The team recently announced that tight deadlines to assemble their revised FW46 resulted in excess weight, costing them valuable time on the track. Despite efforts to reduce weight with new parts, Albon acknowledges that they are still far from reaching the desired weight limit. However, he remains optimistic about the team’s future, emphasizing the importance of avoiding similar setbacks in the next season to focus on improving performance. Albon believes that achieving weight goals will be a crucial step for Williams. Despite the challenges imposed by the additional weight, Albon has shown promising results, reaching Q3 in the last two races and scoring points in Monaco. Unfortunately, his race in Canada was interrupted due to an incident involving Carlos Sainz’s Ferrari and the Williams car.
