🗣️ 'Everyone I'm sure is looking at Aston Martin on the podium and thinking what a step they've done. But we're second - we've done an amazing job.' alex_albon is full of praise for the step forward Williams has taken in F1 this year:
in order to bring longer-term success.
But Albon still reckoned the FW45 could score points more regularly than its predecessor, which did so on five occasions, saying: “I believe so.“We qualified out of position. We should have qualified higher up, in my opinion.“I don’t want to be overly optimistic, but saying that as well, the flipside, I know we’ve got some stuff for the next couple of races that can really push us forwards.”
Ex-Red Bull F1 driver Albon also reckoned the team already knew which areas to target to find immediate lap time gains if it sticks to developing the FW45.“We know in terms of downforce level where there are advantages. “We have kind of a different character to most people - We are slippery on the straights and less quick on the corners.“We still need to dial out some characteristic problems - that’s going to take possibly a little bit longer.
“But for now, the short term, we know where we can improve. There’s lap time there. We’re quick and stable.”
