Alex Albon went into 2025 facing one big question. With the arrival of Carlos Sainz at Williams, how would he measure up against his most competitive teammate since racing alongside Max Verstappen at Red Bull? So far, Alex has answered that question on track – having the edge over Carlos in qualifying and on race day in the first half of the season. But Alex never doubted his ability to rise to that challenge. So, is he a better driver than last year or are we just appreciating his talent more? Speaking to Tom Clarkson, Alex talks about what it’s like having Carlos on the other side of the garage, what changes he has made to his approach this year, why the culture and energy at Williams feels different, and how his relationship with Team Principal James Vowles is growing. Plus, Alex also looks ahead to 2026 and the arrival of new cars and regulations. Will next season be his time to shine? 00:00: Introduction
