Williams Team Principal James Vowles has insisted the team’s cooling issues are now “behind us” following a series of upgrades introduced ahead of the British GP.
Williams Team Principal James Vowles stated that the team has resolved their cooling issues after implementing upgrades before the British Grand Prix. The fixes have been effective, with no compromises to performance since Silverstone. Cooling problems have troubled Williams throughout the 2025 season, notably in races at Miami, Canada, and Austria. At the recent events in Montreal and the Red Bull Ring, overheating caused retirements and disruptions for drivers Carlos Sainz and Alex Albon. Vowles expressed confidence in addressing the cooling problems before the race weekend, noting improvements that showed no negative impact on performance. The cooler weather at Silverstone and Spa concealed the overheating issues, but the real test will come at the high ambient temperatures of the Hungaroring.
