Williams sees mixed but encouraging signs from Baku upgrade
Williams figures described the team’s Azerbaijan upgrade as a positive step, while also saying it was not enough on its own. Team and driver comments pointed to encouraging signs from the updated car in Baku.
Multiple reports focused on Williams’ latest upgrade package at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix in Baku. The package was described as the team’s final major update of the season, with James Vowles assessing its impact after a difficult day on track.
Across the coverage, the verdict was cautiously positive rather than definitive. Vowles said the changes were a step in the right direction, but not enough, while comments attributed to Harman said everything was looking encouraging with the upgrade.
Driver feedback also suggested improvement. Carlos Sainz said the updated Williams felt like a step forward, reinforcing the view that the new parts brought gains even if they did not fully solve the team’s performance limitations.
