Russell anything but happy with "most draggy car" of all the F1 teams

Williams, a team with a lot of positive history. Nowadays, the British team is anything but eligible for that. With last year as an absolute low, far behind the midfield. This year Williams have found improvements, but they still have a long way to go.

And so does driver George Russell. He sees that Williams doesn't yet benefit from the Mercedes engine in the back of the car: "Even though we have the strongest engine in the back, we are by far the 'most draggy' car on the grid. That's why you've seen us go really well the last two years in Budapest because it's not a power-sensitive circuit. And even though we have a lot of power, we don't really use it because we get so carried away by the car". says Russell to Motorsportweek.com

The major acquisition

George Russell is also happy that Williams, through the large takeover of Dorilton, has got rid of the many debts. And so he can focus more on racing again: "Fortunately the decision has now been made and we are happy that Dorilton are the new owners of the team. When we started this process, we wanted to find a partner who shares the same passion and values, who recognises the team's potential and who can boost its strength. In Dorilton, we know we've found just that".
