'I'm here to win' | Carlos Sainz, Alex A...

30-40 / Acast
About this episode

In our second special pre-season episode from Silverstone we're joined by Carlos Sainz, Alex Albon and Jenson Button as Williams launch their 2025 season.


We cover some serious ground from how Carlos and Alex are getting on as teammates, to what they learned from each other as neighbours in Monaco and how Carlos' experience from around the grid has been "downloaded" by James Vowles and the rest of the team as they look to take big steps forward this year.


There's also time for Jenson Button to make sure Christian's F1 knowledge is still up to scratch and for Carlos Sainz to fully embrace the living meme that is "confused Carlos Sainz".
