The 2022 of the team Williams will start with some new-entries already known for several months, but still waiting to be able to make his debut on the track with the Grove team: among these, the most important novelty responds to the name of Alex Albon, ready to return to F1 after a gap year to replace George Russell, in turn one step away from opening a new personal experience in Mercedes. Again as regards the pilots, the British team will then continue to rely on the Canadian Nicholas Latifi, about to participate in the third consecutive season in the Circus and with Williams. The latter, who will therefore meet a new teammate, will also be able to count on the experience of a great Formula 1 signature.
Unlike what happened in 2021, with Covid regulations that had limited their stay in the first part of the season, the next world championship will in fact see a fixed and stable presence of Jenson Button within the team, where he will play the role of senior consultant. The 2009 world champion, who began his career in Williams in 2000, has already had the opportunity to know and interact with Latifi, with the latter who in turn has shown to appreciate the qualities of English: “I think, since Jenson joined, he has revealed himself a great asset to the team – commented – when it reached the team earlier in the year, Covid was still a problem. However, he has a great deal of experience in this sport and his perspective as a driver matters a lot to me, also from a personal point of view.
“Moreover – added Latifi – his former track engineer is also with us and both have maintained an excellent relationship. Jenson is working a lot with the team, I see him interacting regularly with some of the engineers to offer his opinion on what he saw. I’m sure everything he says is precious to them. Personally, I’m still in the early days of my Formula 1 career And has already provided me with valuable advice on how to deal with certain conditions. I have the opportunity to speak with him directly after a qualifying session, or directly after the race. I believe that Jenson is a great resource and is a person who, in times of need, is able to give very valid advice ”.
