Williams are confident a healthy rivalry between Carlos Sainz and Alex Albon will strengthen the F1 team.
Albon has comfortably had the measure of all of his teammates since joining Williams but Sainz, a four-time grand prix winner, could look to threaten the Thai racer’s position as de facto team leader.
“What I'm expecting is leadership that with just a few words is able to lead the team in the right direction as we're moving forward as an organisation. What I'm expecting is an individual that will give me everything when any given race begins, because we're here to make this team successful.” "He's had a frustrating year himself. Reflecting on all that, Alex is the driver that I know he can be and I think next year he'll reset, start again and he'll be strong from the beginning."
