In what is the penultimate race prior to F1's summer break the Atlassian Williams Racing Team moves to the famous Spa circuit for the 2025 Belgian GP. Both Carlos Sainz and Alex Albon are feeling positive going into this Sprint format weekened and with the team bringing a small update it is hoped that the team will be able to return to their early season form. The Sprint format could also open up some opportunities for both drivers.

Carlos Sainz:
As we head to Belgium for the penultimate race before the summer break,
we’ve all had some time off since Silverstone, so I’m feeling rested and
ready to get out on track for one of the best circuits of the year! Spa
always presents challenges and opportunities, whether that being the track
characteristics or the unpredictable weather, it always makes for an
interesting weekend. With the Sprint format adding to this year, let’s
hope this can create some exciting opportunities for us. We’re coming with
some updated package items, so it will be great to see how these perform
on a more difficult track. I’m excited to get back out there and have a
strong weekend!
Alex Albon:
Spa is one of the highlights of the racing calendar so I’m looking
forward to getting back out there this weekend. It’s always an exciting
and unpredictable race, and it’s a track we’ve generally been strong at,
so I’m feeling positive. We’ve had a short break between Silverstone and
Spa to reset and better understand the car, bringing together the
learnings from the last few races. It’s good to see some upgrades coming
to the car which will hopefully help us see out the first half of the
season on a strong note.
