Elbon sees his partner not as a rival but as an ally

      Alex Elbon does not perceive his new partner at Williams as a threat to his career, and considers Carlos Sainz as an ally from whom you can learn a lot. "I think that thanks to Carlos I will get some new opportunities, because he is a professional of a very high level - quotes Elbon publication The Race - He came to the team after one of the best periods of his career, and I'm glad that I will have a great partner from whom I can learn. I hope I can share something with him too." "I've never seen a driver who was so sincere, so open, and so eager to help the team progress," Carlos said of Alex in turn. - He has told me everything he knows about the team and the Williams car. He shares everything with me, is interested in my opinion on various occasions, and I also ask him a lot of questions. Frankly, so far our relationship is developing very well, because we both understand: in order to make this team competitive again, so that it again claimed to win, we must act in concert and move the team in the same direction. Probably, in this case, each of us will partly sacrifice their own interests, say, will have to share with each other some secrets, which racers more often prefer to keep to themselves But in order to make faster progress, we may have to share these things too... Our collaboration can be very effective - that's probably why James Vowles wanted Williams to have this line-up! I am sure that together we can achieve good results".
