Carlos Sainz has the option to go to Williams next year, but James Vowles admitted they are unlikely to wait around forever for him.
Williams team principal James Vowles admitted Carlos Sainz remains on the team’s radar for next season, but that does not mean he will sign for them.
“I think we’ve been fairly forthright and open on who we’d like to sign, but that doesn’t mean it will necessarily happen,” Vowles told“What I would say is this, what I want is a driver that also wants to be a part of our journey, that wants to really, understands what Williams is about, both the old and the new, and wants that to be at the heart of what they’re doing driving wise.
“The reason why I did is not because I’m bored of winning, but rather I want to invest in something that’s my own, that has my fingerprint on it, and the fingerprint of a thousand other people working in this organisation, and the fingerprint of Alex that would join us on that journey. On how he gets on with both Sainz and his father, Carlos Sainz Sr, Vowles added he has a solid relationship with them, and maintained his priority with Williams is to lay out what the team can offer and what they can provide moving forward.
