Albon: New Williams has fixed 2023 problems but exposed fresh issues
During last year’s FW45, Albon faced challenges in low-speed changes of direction, braking, and long-duration fast corners. However, he expressed optimism about Williams rectifying many of these issues for the upcoming season during pre-season testing in Bahrain. Despite encountering a fuel pump fault and other technical problems, Albon praised the team’s efforts in addressing the shortcomings of the previous car. The new car for 2024 introduced some new problems, particularly in terms of car balance, which Albon and his teammate Sargeant have acknowledged. Looking ahead to the new season, Albon anticipates a learning curve for Williams as they aim to start off strong and gradually improve their performance on track.
