- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 มิ.ย. 2023
- Alex Albon has been in strong form throughout the 2023 F1 season. Albon has managed to make his mark so far but since joining Williams, he has proven to everybody why he was in Formula 1 to begin with. If Albon can continue with this positive momentum and consistency, he will continue to win over more and more fans. What does the future hold for Alex Albon? Could we see him race for a top team in the future? Enjoy!

Said it before, saying it again. Whenever Lewis retires, Alex would be a great teammate for George at Mercedes.
Yeah, they really want to fish in another team's waters, I think Lando deserves that seat too
@@arnaldoalegria2209Not Norris. He should stay at McLaren or go to Audi or Aston. Alex would be a better fit for the team.
@@gameofender4463 Do you believe RB will really want to give albon another go again, risk him not performing well at RB again?
@@henrywilliams4170 Who said about him going back to Red Bull?
Agreed. But after Canada we all know what Christian Horner was talking about when he congratulated Alex's race. As much as we love seeing Alex bringing the worst car up the grid, the reality is he is Thai, and Red Bull is a Thai product, his big sponsor is Monsoon valley which is owned by the son of the Red Bull owner. Red Bull as a team is about personalities and everyone in the team likes Alex, whereas Pierre Gasly and now Nyck DeVries who don't gel with the team will never get that seat.
He really didnt get the same opportunity that Russell and Norris, or even Verstappen, he got moved up to a top team in his first year of F1. He didn't really get the chance to make silly mistakes or to grow. I'm glad he's getting that opportunity now.
Despite that his first season(both Toro Rosso and RB) was pretty damn good for a rookie who was called in on short notice to fill both seats.
The talent is there and RBR knows it. What he needed was more time and most importantly a car that isn't a wild bull let loose on track.
I’m happy for him. Great driver and seems like a good guy as well
He's good.... except when they race him too hard.
Oh he had plenty he had a run at the back of F1 with a red bull. He settled in the midpack of DTM in a Red Bull liveried Ferrari. And he makes way to many mistakes at Williams. He is like a rollercoaster. half to 3 quarters of the race ll goes well. Untill he pulls either a Latifi action and parks it in the wall or his pace drops faster then an anvil on his way to titaniii ohhh whoopsie.
why would Verstappen be in your argument ? did you see what he did in a toro rosso ?
Alex is the full package: he’s not only fast and hard-working, but he is also quite media savy & has a very relateable personality which makes him very marketable. Any team would benefit from having him.
Even though I like Alex, his benchmarks on Williams have been Latifi and Sargeant. This makes it hard to properly rate him. He's fine but how fine?
@@soundscape26 Look at his 2019 results.
@@junsengjs past results no guarantee's in the now. Remembered he did well and took Max awhile to get by on Points if i'm not mistaken. The guy must be put on the intensive care of tracktime. It's a clean sheet situation. Same as with when Alonso came back in.
@@soundscape26 Look at the timing sheets, subtract the deficit from the top six and you will have an accurate picture of his capabilities
@@soundscape26hes consistently fighting for points in the slowest car
You couldn’t imagine my smile after the canadian GP. Albono P7, Ferrari in P4 and P5 after a few shoddy weekends in a row, just fabulous. I went to work very happy, even my friends noticed.
In absolute jitters watching him defend
Oh that’s so real. Same thing here as a fan of the overall sport but mostly LEC, it was just a great race
And beats both Ferraris in Silverstone 🤣
I think Albons (and Gaslys) biggest problems in RedBull was RedBull and being up against Verstappen. He is arguably one of the tallest benchmarks we've seen and RedBulls driver philosofy does make it a rough environment to thrive in if your personality isn't a good match for that.
If his 2019 record is anything to go by, he did pretty well. With more time in the team to gain experience and hone his skills he'd be great.
The problem was that the 2020 RB was an unwieldy beast that even Max struggled to rein in at times. If Max struggles with that, then any other person would have an extremely difficult time.
Alex outscored Max from Belgium to Brazil in 2019 in his rookie season in a car with no testing that Verstappen had been driving the whole season.
If Redbull didn’t build a car to completely suit Verstappens style in 2020 then Albon could’ve possibly even beaten Max.
@@paperplane-db8qf RB did admit that they got the RB16 wrong though, Max has an extraordinary ability to compensate for the flaws of the car, and they misjudged whether the RB16 was drivable for a normal human because of how well Max was driving it. Unfortunately it was not drivable for anyone that isn't a monster like Max. They realised that midway through 2020 and worked to fix it. Note how the RB16 got better for Albon towards the tail end of 2020(Albon eventually finished Abu Dhabi 2020 in P4).
In 2021, Alpha Tauri which traditionally took parts from the previous year's RB(the gearbox and such) refused to take the rear parts of the 2020 RB, citing that they know those parts are a bad idea. Also in 2021, RB had Albon providing feedback during development and the RB16B turned out to be the championship fighting car it is.
I think if the 2020 car wasn't undrivable, Albon would have been the perfect #2 driver for RB. Very similar driving preferences to Max, fast, good racecraft. Hell he might even end up challenging Max properly if he had a few years in.
And both being promoted too soon. Gasly after 1 season at Toro Rosso but most especially Albon... only 12 races into his F1 career. Max would have no problem with either obviously.
@@junsengjs The person who fixed the 2020 car was Alex actually. Max credited him in many interviews for getting the setup correct as the simulator driver and was a key component in getting the car under control and faster.
I think it was 2020. Whatever year Alex also raced in DTM.
He binned it in Australia, but after seeing the Williams underfloor I think that it would explain a lot.
It happens...
He qualified higher than he should have. The top 6 were pulling away and Stroll was breathing down his neck. He just pushed too hard. Had he just settled in and got comfortable, I think he could have finished in the points, maybe P9 or P10.
Thank you for your nice comments to Alex. I am his fan from Thailand. And I will always support Alex.🇹🇭✌️
I've always liked Alex Albon, and I'm thrilled to see him thriving and getting the attention he deserves.
I endorse this message.
Should the first choice of Mercedes to replace Lewis. No exceptions.
@@gameofender4463 WOw how do they deal in F1 with this. Albon would take too much Redbull treasure's incl himself along. They can;t go hire an assassin right. XD
The King approves
Williams are lucky to have him. His drive in Canada was outstanding, he didn't put a foot wrong. I really hope Williams can keep him on for at least a few more years, and start getting consistently competitive in the mid field. That would be awesome. Congrats on 100K subs!!
Sad how come there is never a english enginesupplier for William's that puts their shoulders under it? Such a small island, yet so little unity and guts. Booo-ew. Aston no inhoused engine, Mclaren, Williamz, jaguar, all lazy and too affraid to brake a nail. That "need/ or resortment of beeing served" is so colonial man. Try dictating anything with ones works not ones words 'n foul gossip. ^
id love to see Albon in Lewis' seat in a couple of years
Him and George as teammates would be great as they’re best friends and there’d be a clear 1-2 dynamic.
@@gameofender4463 Nico Rosberg intensifies
@@zegzbrutalGeorge can handle Alex a lot more than Lewis can with Nico. Especially since the ability gap between them is greater.
Great dynamic between Alex and George
@@MadeByPerspective George would want to help his best friend as much as he could. He’d still want to win obviously 😂. But he’d probably not play dirty with Alex as his teammate. Think Lewis and Valtteri.
If only Lewis didn't have an obsession with Red Bull rear right wheels
He is now the underdog, as Russel was before in his Williams.
This is the main reason of hype now.
When we have low expectations and get good perfomance, we are starting to admire that person.
Ironically he reminds me a lot of pre-Red Bull Perez. Solid driver able to mix it in places his car shouldn’t really be at times. He’s not often in the wall either which is so important for a team like Williams
His 2019 results was pretty damn good especially when you know that he was called up on short notice to both Toro Rosso and later Red Bull. Man got called up to go into the Toro Rosso while he was already fully committed to going to FE, then halfway through his Toro Rosso season he was called up to jump into the RB seat. His first year was a season of him being called up on short notice to fill a seat that he wasn't expecting nor was he preparing for. If anything, he did a pretty decent run in 2019 and showed that he has the talent.
However the 2020 RB was an unwieldy beast that even Max couldn't rein in at times(they even admitted they developed the car in the wrong direction), and Albon just didn't have the experience to rein in the car to perform. 2020 crushed him and the media constantly bashing him didn't help.
Good part of all of that is probably RBR realising that his poor form in 2020 was not because he didn't have the talent but rather he was struggling with the car, during his season away he didn't let him losing the seat get to him, showed his own tenacity and did what he could to contribute to the team, and in return the team supported him in his search for a seat. When Mercedes attempted to block him entering Williams, RBR gladly let him go if it means that he will get a seat. They separated on good terms, and I won't be surprised if he returns to RB one day.
To all the haters, if he didn't have the talent then what the hell was his 2019 season?
Excuses excuses. He's a mid tier driver at best and will never win a championship.
@@ahhmm5381 Who ever said that mate? Damn you salty xD
He is a good driver, probably never champion yes, but at the same time, LeClerc, Norris will also never be champion
@@totalmadnesman So you agree. Nice
His 2019 season was really good. His overtake on Seb (right before Seb and Leclerc DNFed together) in Brazil impressed me
The fact that he found a way to finish best of the rest in a Williams is very impressive. Luckily because the next two rounds in Austria and the UK are both high speed tracks where the car can be somewhat competitive, he might be able to have repeat success if the same strategy ends up actually working
Austria's high altitude won't favour Williams and Silverstone requires high cornering speeds, so it will probably be the worst track for that Williams. He might do well in qualifying at Silverstone, but the tyre wear will ruin his race.
He was lucky. Thats all. There is a reason he scored one point before this race.
Also, if the WIlliams is so fast on high speed tracks, where were they in Baku?
@@ahhmm5381 Tbf, Albon qualified 7th in the sprint race and finished 9th, so they did have some pace at Baku.
@@ahhmm5381for your information,in Baku They didn't have upgrades.Surely you're a Pérez fan 😂😂
@@cg_2k72 Ok. Maybe the car is less slow on fast tracks.
Congratulations on 100K subscribers! Very well deserved! Keep it up man we all love your content 👍 thank you for putting in the time and work for us.
I can't believe I'd ever agree with such a statement in recent years, but I agree that moving to Williams has been good for him. I've honestly never cared much for him as a driver but being at a team like Williams does have a minor upside for an actually good driver: you sometimes get to really demonstrate what you can do, and it's all the more impressive because you've done it in a Williams. (My how the times have changed!)
Seriously though, he's impressed me a LOT this year, and I'm still no stan or anything, but I enjoy a team like Williams having some fight and some hope and making improvements, and a lot of this would be impossible without a driver of his caliber. I think people forget far too easily that these drivers are among the very best in the world and that they wouldn't have even gotten into F1 had it not been for that fact (well... Latifi and Mazepin aside). People are also far too quick to forget that even World Champions make mistakes sometimes. That's part of what makes competition so much fun.
I guess that's why I'm glad that Albon is still driving for Williams: because it gives us the opportunity to appreciate his driving despite the fact that the car is mostly a turd. Indeed, a lot of other drivers have a similar opportunity but have failed to capitalize on it.

Yeah both Gasly and Alex were unfairly treated imo. I'm stoked to see Alex going well.
I would sau that for Gasly but not for Albon. Gasly didn't even get a full year but Albon got more than a year. And he dug his own grave when he uttered the now infamous words "they race me so hard".
Yes for Gasly... ran out of patience with him too soon. Especially for a guy in his 2nd F1 season.
100k gang, congrats
congrats on 100k!!
I think the most important thing is that he seems to be having fun at Williams. I dont know if the same could be said about a lot of drivers in better performing teams. Seems like no matter what outside of crashing, Alex seems positive. He was so excited to get a P7 lol
Definitely. He's with Williams for the long-haul, I can assure you. It's his team now. Also, 100k!
I've always valued Alex for his personality and just how kind he is. but lately he became one of my favourite drivers tbf. quiet and strong. glad he's getting the recognition he deserves
Albon did well when first promoted up to Red Bull (Hamilton's take out notwithstanding). Second year he was in a high pressure situation that he had enough time in F1 to handle. So the following year he spent the season as a backup driver for RBR, and getting a Master Class in how a top tier team works from data analysis to car setup to logistics to driver and mechanic management.
Then he went to Williams, long past its heyday. He quickly made himself at home, worked thru rebuilding the team, and becoming lead driver.
Now Williams is Albon's team. It's financially secure, hiring talented people, and showing great improvement.
Why would he go anywhere else to play second fiddle?
Bringing Williams back to the top of the midfield is easy to see. Bringing Williams back to the top tier with podiums and wins is not a stretch.
And Albon would be forever the face of Williams as the driver who brought them back.
i’m so happy that ppl are finally giving alex albon the respect that he deserves. i’ve been a fan for a few years and 2020 was a tough one. i didn’t think he’d get a drive again, but i’m rly glad he’s turned his rep around and he’s been doing an amazing job at williams:))
Honestly I feel like if Alex has a few more good races he will most likely get a seat in one of the big teams like Lewis seat when he retures
What???? Are you delusional? One decent result means nothing.
@@ahhmm5381 umm I’m nit just talking about 1 result he’s been able to do decent in so many races with the shit box of a Williams we know he’s a fast driver he just crashed it a lot but now he’s more skilled so..
@@Funny_jokeman108 16th in Spain, 14th in Monaco. These are not good results. Also, 12th in Baku. Yawn
Admittedly, Albon is much better at fighting other trash drivers than drivers who, you know, race him hard.
@@ahhmm5381 your forgetting the… umm car he is driving
@@Funny_jokeman108 Or maybe Logan Sargent is terrible, making Albon look good.
Awesome driver I always backed him, great to see the Resurection. On ward and upwards
*Max hears boss music in the distance and checks his mirrors to see Albon in barrelling toward him in a Williams*
He also has a TH-cam channel called Super GT it’s pretty cool
Legendary! 🤣
Hello mate i have been in Monaco and i walked all f1 circuit in Monaco and visited the hairpin there so happy dream come true
We need to see him along an experienced driver, he has run over repeatedly on his teammates in Williams and as long as I'm against removing a rookie after one season, he needs someone to put a little pressure on him from their own team
Alex absolutely deserves another shot with a top team. The guy is just solid
So true, confidence is key. I think Perez is experiencing it, Danny also did. They are all solid drivers
His time in Williams was what he needed when he was in Toro Rosso. It was premature moving him to RBR and while he could still sometimes deliver, its like pulling a butterfly out of its cocoon prematurely. It was the only move RBR could do at the time and they knew it was a mistake with Alex as a possible collateral but they took the gamble on him because i feel that is how much they trusted in his abilities. Yet, being in F1 is cutthroat, even more so being in a top team so they had to cut him off for the sake of the entire team but they bent over backwards to help keep him in the paddock by putting him in the sim, helping out for 2021, then later orchestrated his move into Williams, thus securing his future. Even now, Horner still has eyes on Alex and RB is on his helmet so you know theyre still backing him. I potentially see Alex back in RBR next to Max when Checo decides to call it a day. Everyone in the paddock knows Albono's quality.
Saying all this as a Leclerc and Tsunoda fan, too.
Alex has been the most consistent driver so far this season. He only goes either the same place every weekend or higher than his former place in qualifying and races. Even Checo could not get the same consistency as Albon but Checo's got a better machine.
Me who is a fan of Alex Albon since 2019 RB switch even his 2020 campaign wasnt that great i still believe him and never doubt my boy still supporting him the best i could
Quoting a TH-camr of my country:
"Albon had the worst seat in the grid: Verstappen's teammate seat."
And I fully agree with this quote, being Verstappen's teammate is very hard.
Good to see SuperGT getting the recognition he deserves!
p7 for the goat of modern williams 🤙
Don’t ever disrespect Latifi like that again
Lando, George and Alex all have that thing in them. I hope all 3 race against each other in future years
All being British?
All being inferior to Max?
I think David Tremayne said it best when he wondered what Albon would be doing if he was performing at _this_ level in the second Red Bull seat. Sometimes, all that's needed to unlock one's potential is a change of scenery.
The side stories, seeing who gets P2, and best of the rest are the most interesting part of this season. Hopefully in 2025 we will have at least 3 teams really fighting at the top.
He deserves more i think hes able even to win podiums and score points obviously and he doesn’t have the best machinery imagine if williams bring a good upgrade for the car he would definitely move forward!
This driving class of max, Charles, Norris, albon, Russell, is going to run the f1 big teams for a while Red Bull didn’t need two and it’s almost like the world I mean lewis knew it
100k 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I don’t think it was pressure that made the RBR stint bad, it was the car development based on max’s strengths, which makes a car that’s incredibly difficult for others to drive.
Don’t forget he was on a per race contract back in F2 so he didn’t even know he would be in the next race
I 100% agree! But don't tell the guy in a TH-cam Community post the other day. He's gonna be mad.
dope raiders hat g
Getting away from Red Bull was such a smart move for him, he's the number one at Williams, the team loves him and he's not none of the stress of what seems to be a Toxic kind of hell that is Red Bull for anyone not called Max. He likely has a seat at Williams for as many years as he wants and while probably never going to be challenging for the title, they seem to be moving forward towards being in the midfield.
Happy for him tbh.
This seamlessly fits into what I was saying last night, after watching the podcast Max and Alex recorded for the RB TH-cam channel, 3 years ago.
The pressure on Alex didn't buy RB anything. Given some more time, he'd be performing at least as well as Checo.
Checo isn’t performing that much better than Alex did actually
I feel if alex was with redbull in 2021, they would have won the constructors as well
@@zaynsadiq5536 Checo was a hot commodity at the end of the 2020 season so I cannot blame Red Bull for snatching him.
@@soundscape26 yh fair enough
He clearly needed to go blond... everything changed from that moment on.
Congrats on the 100k!!
I believe Alex albon is the future for Williams racing
I get the aesthetic, but if someone walks on your set, without context, they will probably think you’re a murderer. The crossed out eyes on a connected pin board 🤣
I have always been a fan of alex
I was pained when he was dropped by redbull
If williams improve next year and Alex will deliver regulary i think we can see him be in a top 3 team in 2025 or 2026 OR if williams will improve a lot under James Vowles(dont know if thats correct) he can get atleast a podium and help them develop even more.
Williams in top 3 😂 your delusional
Max makes good drivers look average,, and when your going head to head against him in the the team you do a blistering fast run nail the lap and your still tenths down… it’s gotta be soul crushing
Yes but also Albon was promoted too soon... just after 12 races with Toro Rosso.
Albon just didn’t have enough time he wasn’t even halfway through his first season in f1 yet
Turn the volume up before you export please😩
Alex lacked experience at Red Bull but even then he had a couple of good races. Give him the right car and it's only a matter of time before he ends up on the podium.
I really rate Albon. I suspect in equal machinery he could stand toe to toe with anyone. He didn't fit in Red Bull (who does aprt form Verstappen?) but put him in a Merc and who knows?
Let's see. At best, Albono could get a seat on a team that would be a good 2nd driver on a contender (return to Red Bull is possible). If he'll win a WDC in the future, at least one time and need luck.
At least he's doing well for Williams scoring points ahead on the back end of the pack (Williams, Alpha Tauri, Sauber though given they'll wait for Audi).
I think it is so sad that they didn‘t have more patience with him at rb, he‘s so talented
Top teams cannot afford to sit around and wait for drivers to get fast. That's why they get sent to bookmarker teams, where they can fight other trash drivers and convince gullible fans they are actually good.
@@ahhmm5381then RB should not have taken him if he was not "fast". The problem lies within RB, not with the drivers
@@supertouring22 But they only knew he was slow AFTER they promoted him
Alex is one of those drivers that should be on the grid for 10 or more years. He’s definitely in Lando’s league in my opinion.
Yeah, they are both trash drivers, so agreed.
Top, underrated, RB destroyes him rushing him when he wasn't bad
Mate, I love you, with all due respect, please put a reflector on your left side.
Albon won a DTM race in 2021. :)
I pray that Horner and Marko do not trick him to coming back to Red Bull. I would love for him to ride Williams all the way to the top. That would be incredible.
The Williams seems to fit him like a glove evidenced by the way he drives it to the limit with so much confidence. His tenure at RB handling that intricately difficult car has provided him the helpful benefit of experiencing contrast with the less complex Williams. But this does NOT mean he should go back to RB. The two cars have fundamentally different scale of complexities .Keep away from the RB Alex. You have nothing to prove now. We all know you are very good.
wow
Albon to replace Stroll
Contrags on 100k subs
Problem with Red bull is that they heavily developed their car into Verstappen's liking. RB is a Verstappen's car. When these drivers goes out of RB, they flurished. The only exception is Ricciardo who did really well on RB even beat Verstappen but slowly regressed outside RB.
Yeah Albon is a 'kin weapon now. Now only his bodytone is left as a duckling, his outer fluffyness is a darn smokescreen man. Albon must be Redbull's Airwolf by now. Whehehe yeah that's what they good in at redbull --> tweakin' the freaks innit. XD What a madhatters nest, in a utmost jolly way. LOL Such a "team comicbookcharacter"! Aah i Love it.
i am prediciting williams top 6 in spa and monza
* Alex having a solid podium run at Red Bull *
Lewis: "The fuck you are..."
* So called "racing incident" occurred... *
This B.S. happened like 3 times if I am not mistaken. It was like Lewis has a personal challenge not to let Albon get podiums.
Yup. Alex was on pace to win Interlagos and Austria, both times Lewis shoved Alex into the dirt. Then turned around and cried about Max doing the same thing to him.
I’m a Lewis fan, but indeed, Alex’s best opportunities were unfairly pulled out from under him while at Red Bull.
@@WillKlein I genuinely have no ill will against Lewis. He's a 7.5 time champion for a reason and I've enjoyed watching some of his epic drives. I was just pointing out the hypocrisy of the games the drivers play with each other lol. Alex is my favorite driver to follow because his story has been a lot of fun and it's cool to see him continue to grow. Been buying Williams merch lately and kinda buying into the moves they're making. it's a long-term investment, but if Alex ends up at Mercedes (I think Lando and Alex will be competing for that spot) then Merc will have a new fan.
@@simracing4simpletons978 7.5 time champion made me lol
this might be a bit of a stretch but i think albon is championship worthy material. if williams keeps up the good upgrades of course
Hahahahahah Thank you!
If stroll wasn't in AM i think alex would be a great addition to them tbh. Even driving a poopbox he does so well compared to stroll
I have a new conspiracy theory for you. Possibly one to explore for a video and see how wild it can run. Think about the the recent new changed in the Cost cap hitting the top teams hard (work subsidiaries do for the teams is now included in cost cap). Then add in how Red Bull already faces penalties for breaching the cost cap and will have the least R&D time (assuming they come in 1st in the constructors). Are they reshaping the infrastructure of Alphatauri in order to use their R&D time, wind tunnel, etc in order to further gain an advantage over the rest of the field during the cost cap era? I mean they are the only team that could do it, and think about what RB could do with double the cost cap Merc Ferrari and Aston will have. Seems very weird these changes to the cost cap happen and in the same week Helmut is talking about changing up Alphatauri. I mean we all know they been struggling but the timing shouldn’t be overlooked imo. Hope you see this
The Red Bull Thing wasn't working with Albon, Because RB is a quite toxic environment really, Williams is such a different Atmosphere, that it seems that He's happy there. And he's delivering here MASSIVELY.
How does RB have a toxic environment?
@@ahhmm5381 Pay no attention to a Scuderia lemming projecting. all they know is toxic.
Latifi and Sargeant flatter him.
Get Albon in to Aston Martin alongside Alonso!
