James Vowles establece un plazo para que Williams F1 puntúe con regularidad

El director del equipo Williams de Fórmula 1, James Vowles, ha trazado planes para que la escudería sume puntos de forma constante tras el parón estival de agosto. El equipo con sede en Grove atravesó un inicio difícil de la temporada 2026 debido a los retrasos en el FW48. Las mejoras recientes permitieron obtener un doble resultado en los puntos durante el Gran Premio de Miami.

Vowles señaló que las cinco semanas de descanso entre las carreras de Japón y Miami permitieron al equipo acelerar el trabajo de desarrollo. Explicó que la serie de actualizaciones previstas durante y ligeramente después del parón veraniego debería posicionar a Williams para conseguir puntos cada fin de semana a partir de esa etapa. Hasta entonces, el equipo espera reducir la distancia, pero sigue estando a varias décimas del quinto coche más rápido, ocupado actualmente por Alpine.
