Alexander Albon became news Emilia Romagna GP in Imola. Williams announced this Wednesday that they have reached an agreement with the Thai pilot to extend their relationship with a multi-year renewal. His contract expires at the end of the 2025 season and he will now continue with Grove’s team with the change in regulations starting in 2026.
Albon was one of the options mooted to join Red Bull or Mercedes, but his name never seemed to gain enough traction. Furthermore, the 28-year-old driver has trusted the Williams structure for a long time and has been a leader in recent times. He wants to take the team to the top after many years at the back of the grid.
“I am incredibly happy to stay with Williams Racing and continue to work with such a talented and dedicated team of people. It’s been a tough start to the year, but since joining Williams, we’ve made significant progress together and I have seen the big changes that have taken place behind the scenes to bring us back to the front of the grid. This This is a long-term project where I really believe and where I want to play an important role, that’s why I signed a multi-year contract,” Thai commented in the statement.
2024 will be Albon’s third season with the British team and last year he had a good role with 27 points, finishing in the top 10 on seven occasions. This season they are struggling so far and in six races they are yet to score a first.
Who will be your partner?
Albon shared a box Logan Sargeant dSince last season, everything indicates that beyond 2024 there will be another driver by his side. The American driver has several sponsors with him but his performance is quite weak. Since he has been in F1 he has only scored points.
The loud sound is Andrea Kimi AntonellYo. The Italian driver is the good bet for the future of Mercedes to star in the coming years in F1. Despite his youth, 17 years old, those from Brackley want him to get a place in the Great Circus as soon as possible and for him to make a film with those from the Grove is a juicy option. For now, however, Antonelli is focused on him rookie year in F2 with PREMA as his landing in the majors seems closer.
