Williams fights to find pace after frustrating Friday

It was a mixed bag for Williams at the track, but seeing Luke Browning back in the car for FP1 was a genuine highlight. After he was sidelined during the Barcelona-Catalunya round, watching him complete a successful session was exactly what the team needed.

Unfortunately, the mood shifted once the full-time drivers took over. Both Alex Albon and Carlos Sainz ended their Friday work feeling unhappy with their machines. Sporting Director Sven Smeets confirms the team is working hard behind the scenes to get the cars ready, because as it stands, they simply aren't where they need to be.
