Alex Albon's old friends and rivals welcomed on Thursday the announcement that the Thai racer would be returning to Formula One with Williams next season after a year out.
"He's been my team mate, he's a great guy, he's a hard worker and he definitely deserves a spot in Formula One. He has a lot of talent so I'm also very sure he will come back strong and show good results." "I definitely told the guys who I thought would be best suited," the Briton said when asked if he had recommended signing Albon."Alex is a fantastic driver. He obviously had a tough time at Red Bull but I think he's going to come back even stronger. He's always been there in everything he's ever done and I'm sure the environment at Williams is going to suit him to a T.
Alpine's 24-year-old French driver Esteban Ocon, who also had to take a year out of Formula One before securing his return, said it was fantastic news.
