Alex Albon urges Williams to fix race pace

Alex Albon has cautioned that Williams must improve its race pace after both he and Carlos Sainz scored points at the Miami Grand Prix, marking the team’s first double finish of the season. Miami featured the debut of Williams’ delayed “race one package,” and Albon surged forward early, gaining several positions from fifteenth on the grid. He admitted, however, that the team’s performance over a full stint remains lacking, noting that strong starts alone cannot sustain their points ambitions.

Albon, who finished tenth to secure his first point of the year, stressed that Miami has historically suited Williams and warned against overestimating the apparent progress. He highlighted that last season he also excelled at the venue, reinforcing the need for caution. Looking ahead, Albon believes Canada will offer a clearer picture of the upgrade’s impact, adding that improved qualifying could help Williams score more consistently without depending on opening‑lap gains.
