Il team principal della Williams fissa un limite dopo il doloroso GP del Giappone

Il team principal della Williams, James Vowles, ha descritto il Gran Premio del Giappone come doloroso e ha promesso di sfruttare le cinque settimane di pausa prima di Miami per migliorare le prestazioni della scuderia. Carlos Sainz ha concluso 15° e Alex Albon 20° a Suzuka. Vowles ha elogiato entrambi i piloti, affrontando al contempo i problemi persistenti della vettura.

La Williams ha vissuto un weekend difficile sul circuito di Suzuka durante il Gran Premio del Giappone. Sainz ha tagliato il traguardo in 15ª posizione con quella che Vowles ha definito una guida impeccabile, mentre Albon ha terminato 20° dopo un'eliminazione nel Q1 durante le qualifiche e un programma di test a fine gara che ha coinvolto cinque soste ai box. Albon aveva espresso la sua frustrazione dicendo: “Mi lamento da tre gare di fila che c'è qualcosa che non va, ma sono sicuro che sia il mio stile di guida”.
