The Williams driver shared his memories of being linked to the British Grand Prix circuit, also admitting that this circuit is a slightly worse fit for the FW45 car than the Canadian and Austrian ones.
Alex Albon: “Actually, I grew up in this neighborhood and even when I got my driver’s license, my driving test was taken at Silverstone. We can say that the beginning of my racing career also took place here and in 2018 I won a Formula 2 race on this circuit.
Silverstone is distinguished by its high speeds and windy weather, as it is located in an open area. The strong wind here makes it very difficult to make the circle perfect, because the direction changes, and this greatly affects the balance of the car.
The weekend in Canada was extremely successful for Williams, but we also performed well in Austria, where our car was also capable of an excellent pace. the British leg of the season.
Although it is no secret that we liked the previous two circuits better than Silverstone, we still expect everything to work out here too.”
