In a conversation about a potential team principal showdown, Williams team principal James Vowles chose not to release footage of Lewis Hamilton playfully laugh
over their driving skills during a track outing. Vowles also shared insights from his racing career, including a memorable experience in the Asian Le Mans Series, where he gained a deeper understanding of a racing driver's mindset.
“Then I had the opportunity to get into GT4 and GT3 racing in ’21 and ’22, and ’23 was a little bit of it as well. When you win that, it’s serious. Now you’re talking serious money, serious investment, serious races as well. I loved it! Down the line, he got the opportunity to race for the Garage 59 team, piloting a McLaren 720S in the 2022 Asian Le Mans Series. His experiences racing through the pitch-black night in Dubai and navigating the conditions in Abu Dhabi provided him with deep insights into the mindset of a racing driver. He added:
“You have to earn your wings and you have to earn your place. A very particular moment came in Abu Dhabi when I went out with new tires, in equivalent conditions to a number of other teams, and I did a lap time that was as fast as my teammate on the other side of the garage, who’s a really strong racer. I didn’t know that at the time… All I realized on track was that I wasn’t being overtaken.
