Alex Albon’s thanks to Williams
Alex Albon’s response immediately reached social media, but the message he shared had a very particular nuance.

The structure and tone reminded the message that Oscar Piastri published yesterday after Alpine “confirmed” its arrival in the 2023 season.
Piastri, Reanult’s reserve driver, denied there was a signed contract or agreement on his entry into the France team. In this regard, the 21-year-old Australian said so on his social networks.
“I understand that, without my consent, Alpine F1 issued a press release late this afternoon stating that I will be driving for them next year. This is untrue and I have not signed a contract with Alpine for 2023. I won’t be driving for Alpine next year.
