Nicholas Latifi looks back on his time at Williams with disappointment. Where he had hoped to secure a firm place in the middle of the pack with the formation, the last few years have been difficult for him to score points. On his official website he looks back on his farewell in Formula 1.

Latifi's last season was extremely difficult. Only on the race weekend in Japan did he manage to finish in the points, putting only two points to his name in 2022. His teammate Alexander Albon did not fare much better with four points.

Despite this, the British formation decided to continue with Thai driver while saying goodbye to Latifi. The Canadian therefore worked his last race in Abu Dhabi last month, which was not easy for him. However, he decided to temporarily put his emotions aside.

"The truth is there were a lot of different emotions. Most of all though, I wanted to try and enjoy it as much as I could and make the most of the opportunity. I didn’t want to sweat the stuff that had been causing me frustration or stress during the season," Latifi stated, also commenting on his future. "Let’s see. I’ll keep you posted."
