Red Bull and Mercedes are both considering their 2025 driver options with Alex Albon a contender for both F1 giants, thanks to his impressive performances with Williams

Despite interest from top Formula 1 teams, David Coulthard wants to see Alex Albon stick with Williams.

After a year out, he returned in 2022 with Williams and has taken his second chance with both hands. His performances for F1's sleeping giants have earned admiring glances from up and down the paddock. Not only that, but his old Red Bull team clearly liked what they saw too. Christian Horner has kept in touch with Albon and the 27-year-old is a strong contender to replace Sergio Perez at the end of the year, should Red Bull decide to make a change.

Speaking on his Formula For Success podcast, the Scot said: " James Vowles has definitely established himself well as team principal. He's facing the hard questions, rather than hiding from them. So, I have to believe that, given time, he will be able to turn that team around.
