Williams is to release a two-part documentary about the 2022 Formula One season. On Twitter the British team announced that the documentary will be called 'Williams - Untold Story'.

According to the announcement, it will be a look back at the highs and lows of the 2022 Formula 1 season. Williams claims that the documentary will use footage that cannot be seen anywhere else.

It seems Williams was inspired by the Netflix series Drive to Survive. The picture used with the announcement looks very similar to the footage the Netflix series uses at the beginning of each episode, and the format of the documentary is also reminiscent of the well-known programme. Recently, Netflix announced what the episodes of the upcoming season of Drive to Survive will be called, and it seems there is no episode that will focus specifically on Williams.

Rare but notable highs for Williams

Although Williams had more lows than highs in 2022, there were plenty of memorable moments. For instance, substitute Nyck de Vries immediately scored points for Williams on his debut at Monza, something regular driver Nicholas Latifi had not managed to do at that point in the season. Alexander Albon managed to finish tenth in Australia with an unusual strategy by scheduling his only pit stop of the race on the second-to-last lap. At the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, Albon managed to defend so well that he managed to keep Pierre Gasly and Lewis Hamilton behind him for the entire second half of the race.

A release date of Williams - Untold Story has not yet been announced. It is also still unknown where the documentary will be shown, although it seems likely that the footage will be posted on Williams' website.
