2024 Williams Racing F1 Team

Colapinto is so good. Completely unexpected, but he's absolutely killing it. I hope he manages to snag a permanent seat for 2025 or 2026.

A bit difficult to judge today's performance, tbh, as the car didn't get the softs to work at all, so both drivers were mostly sliding around. But yeah, he made the most of it, I'd think, so that's good.

Going by the runs on race tires, the Williams should easily be faster than the cars ahead tomorrow. Will be interesting to see if they can make use of it or get stuck in traffic now.

Is it true that Colapinto didn't have DRS on his final run in Q2?

there was an issue on the final straight, it did work for those before. Going by F1Tempo, it cost him around 0.020s

Okay. Just checking because that would have been eye opening otherwise...

I thought it was just me, but it looks like people are already starting to catch on: I thought I saw the grandson or reincarnation of Senna in Colapinto. I saw him and I thought wait a minute, and then I looked it up to see others have made a similar comparison.

Am I the only one who thinks they should cancel Sainz's contract and sign Franco on a long term deal?

As harsh as it could sound, I'd put Colapinto in a contract for 2026.

This way, Williams have 2025 to choose Sainz or Albon.

I think that Sainz has a contract for 2026 (Albon as well?) but everything is a matter of money.
