Regret and Redemption: Albon Reflects on the Missed Opportunity that Defined his F1 Career in 2023

P1racenews AI automatic summary:


Alex Albon believes he maximised every opportunity to score points for Williams with one exception during the 2023 Formula 1

In 2023, Williams achieved its best placing in six years with a seventh position finish in the championship, after a string of poor performances in previous seasons. The team heavily relied on the efforts of Albon, who scored 27 of their 28 points and successfully held off pressure from AlphaTauri. Albon’s best finishes were in Montreal and Monza, where the car’s straight-line speed helped him defend against faster cars behind. Although pleased with the progress, Albon hopes to score points in a more conventional manner in the upcoming year. Williams’ dependence on Albon resulted from promoting rookie driver Logan Sargeant, who struggled throughout his debut season. Albon himself regrets a costly mistake in the Australian Grand Prix, where he crashed out while running solidly in the points. Despite this setback, Albon managed to secure several more points finishes and finished 13th in the standings, eight places higher than his teammate.
