Following an impressive Friday practice at Formula 1’s Canadian Grand Prix, Williams seemed cautious, with both drivers attributing their strong showing to running a different program than their rivals. Alex Albon and Carlos Sainz secured notable positions in first and second practice, indicating a welcome return to form after a non-scoring round in Barcelona. Williams is optimistic about a potential points finish in Montreal this weekend, although Albon stressed the need to maintain momentum for Saturday. Sainz highlighted the crucial tire choice for the race and noted that Williams’ pace may not be entirely accurate due to their running strategy. Despite the encouraging performance, both drivers acknowledged the need for further improvements to contend with the fastest cars on the grid and secure a competitive position in the upcoming sessions.
