I couldn't be happier w/ Vowles and Williams this season, and I'm hoping their investment into the next reg car plays out - lord knows they can't give a sound bite without mentioning it. But if all their efforts have been going into next year's car, when they're already Best of the Rest (and solidly so) this year, could they really challenge for 4th next year? That's a massive jump - Ferrari has almost 3x+ points over Williams.
Love that Carlos and the car/team finally gelled. There seemed to be some talk of him going elsewhere halfway through the season, and now he's got 2 podiums and a 5th.
Bummed about Alex having such a streaky season and ending poorly. If he and Carlos can be scoring at the same time, they could be salty. 7 of his 11 scoring races were 7th or better, with 4 5th place finishes.
scored in 7 of the 1st 8
3 RET
scored in 4 of the next 5
out of the points in 6 of the next 7, and RET in the 7th
