    Haven’t read the article because of that bullshit cookie-hostage stuff, but…

    I think it’s a multitude of things. Williams (or whatever it actually is these days) hooking up a pretty decent car, some good leadership in the squad, fantastic strat calls today, and the standard Albon throwing that car about like a stripper’s bra and putting the car in rankings that it really has no business being.

    Albon has been the standout guy for the past two years in the bottom half of the field, he’s punching well above his weight. It’s just a shame he sunk in a team with a notorious allergy to giving drivers time, alongside arguably the team favourite in Max.

    I loved the Williams team as a boy and I have to keep telling myself they’re a Williams in name only now, but I hope they “do a McLaren” and haul themselves up the grid again.
