Alex Jacques ofrece un veredicto mordaz sobre el inicio de Williams en 2026

El comentarista de Fórmula 1, Alex Jacques, comparó el mal comienzo de Williams en la temporada 2026 con organizar unas vacaciones familiares especiales durante dos años y terminar perdiendo el vuelo. El equipo ocupa el noveno lugar en el campeonato de constructores con dos puntos tras tres rondas. Las expectativas eran altas tras las actualizaciones proporcionadas por James Vowles durante 2025.

Williams afrontó la temporada 2026 con optimismo, ya que el jefe de equipo, James Vowles, había compartido detalles sobre sus preparativos centrados en el nuevo reglamento. Sin embargo, la escudería con sede en Grove se perdió las pruebas privadas en Barcelona y llegó a los test de pretemporada en Baréin en desventaja. Jacques describió la situación como aleccionadora durante un vídeo de análisis del inicio de la temporada de F1, elogiando la elocuencia de Vowles al explicar los procesos del equipo. Señaló: 'Es como hablar durante dos años de unas vacaciones familiares realmente especiales y luego perder el vuelo. ¿Cómo puedes promocionarlo durante dos años?'
