Russell confident of Williams improvements

George Russell says he is confident that Williams will make serious improvements to their car after a disastrous start to their 2019 season.

The Grove-based outfit has consistently been the slowest team on the grid this year after an already woeful 2018 season. Things have not improved immediately but Russell says that the team will make gains sooner rather than later.

Speaking to Motorsport Week, Russell said that he was positive the team could find the sources of their problems and fix them before the end of the season.

“The car doesn’t feel good, so there’s hope that if we improve that balance feeling, make it more driveable for myself and Robert then the performance should come.”

Speaking after the race, Russell admitted the team had struggled once more in the race despite there being a positive feeling after qualifying.
