Williams has added a grand prix winner to its driver line-up for the first time in several years – but the newcomer will have his work cut out for him.
Williams is looking to the future, having recruited Carlos Sainz for 2025 to boost their lineup with experience. Sainz is expected to outperform Albon, with 85% of respondents predicting Sainz to lead in points. Sainz’s track record of pole positions, podiums, and race wins make him a strong contender. Albon, entering his fourth season at Williams, will lean on Sainz’s experience to improve but faces a tough challenge. Ultimately, Williams prioritizes future success over intra-team rivalries, with Sainz poised to make a significant impact in the upcoming season.
