McLaren believes that Williams is in the top four

      Andrea Stella stated that the Williams car is in the top four, at least in terms of speed on a fast lap. The McLaren boss believes that the FW47 has become a step forward compared to last season, and Carlos Sainz and Alex Albon will become serious rivals in 2025.

      Andrea Stella: "Based on what I've seen, Williams is definitely in the top four in terms of speed per fastest lap. They look very competitive.

      Interestingly, the Williams car is very effective in the second sector, where not only braking and acceleration, but also several medium-speed turns. This shows that they have improved in these areas.

      The conclusions that can be drawn from the tests are that at the beginning of the season, the gaps will be even smaller than they were last season."
