Formula 1: Carlos Sainz Signs 2-year Contract With Williams Racing
Red Bull Racing: Ferrari driver Carlos Sainz has signed a two-year contract with Williams Racing with options to extend which will come into effect from the next Formula 1 season. The Spanish driver will race alongside Thailand's Alex Albon in the 2025 season after losing his current Ferrari seat to seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton.
In his Formula 1 career to date, the 29-year-old has achieved three race victories, 23 podiums, over 1,100 career points and is currently sitting fifth in this season’s Drivers’ Championship.
After becoming the only non-Red Bull Racing driver to achieve a race victory in 2023, Sainz most recently took victory at this year’s Australian Grand Prix, just ten days after surgery for appendicitis, and has scored four further podiums so far this season. Sainz has had no shortage of suitors, with Williams, Sauber/Audi and Alpine all keen to get his signature – but it was James Vowles’ Williams project that ultimately got the Spaniard’s seal of approval.
