Williams have signed outgoing Ferrari driver Carlos Sainz for the 2025 Formula 1 season “and beyond”.
Sainz has been seeking a 2025 seat since Ferrari announced in February that they were replacing him with Lewis Hamilton next year.
The Spaniard was seen as a candidate to take Hamilton’s seat at Mercedes and was also linked with Red Bull, before ultimately appearing to be left with a choice between Alpine, Williams or the Sauber team that will become Audi in 2026.
After months of negotiations, Sainz has chosen to join Williams at the start of next year and will be Alex Albon’s team-mate.
