Five F1 drivers who could be Alex Albon’s teammate in 2025
With Williams announcing Alex Albon’s new multi-year deal ahead of ⛎Imola this weekend, who 🌼could partner him in 2025?

Another domino in the F1 driver market fell as Williams announced 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Albon will remain with the team for the foreseeable future having si꧒gned a multi-year deal.
The identi🌞ty of Albon’s team🔜mate for 2025 is still unknown though.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Logan Sargeant’s poor form means it’s likely Williams w🌄ill be active in the driver market as they look to improve their line-up for next year.
Here’s who Williams could sign alongside Albon.
Andrea Kimi Antonelli
Andrea Kimi Antonelli is reportedly the favourite to drive alongside Albon should Merced♏es feel he’s not ready.
Antonelli is Mercedes’ hot young prospect, effectively their own 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen of the future.
The Italian has been linked with Williams on a regular basis, even reports suggesting he could make his F1 debꦿut this weekend.
The FIA reported that they had received a request to hand Antonelli a super licence ear🦹ly, before he t🍸urns 18, leading to speculation he could make his F1 debut at Imola.
That didn't materialis💛e as he focuses on his FIA Formula 2 campaign.
Antonelli to Williams could be likely if Mercedes opt for 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Carlos Sainz, or Verstappen d😼ecides to jump ship from Red Bull.
Valtteri Bottas
A Williams reunion for168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Valtteri Bottas could be on the cards.
It appears that the Finn has little hope of remaining w♓ith Sauber/Audi ꦫwith the team already signing Nico Hulkenberg.
Sauber have their eyes on Sainz as their ❀number one choice, while the Alpine pair are also on Andreas Seidl’s wishlist.

Despite failing to score any points in 2024 so far, Boﷺttas’ performances for Sauber🍎 have been impressive.
He’s unbeaten in qualifying against 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Zhou Guanyu and without som🥃e pit stop misfortune, he’d have like♔ly scored in at least two races.
A Bottas-Albon combination would give Williams an incredibly potent midfield line-up - something they’ve not had since Bottas was last in the team alongside 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Felipe Massa in 2016.
Pierre Gasly
Another driver in the frame to join Williams potentially is 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pierre Gasly.
According to Sky’s David Croft, Gasly has held talks with Williams over a potent𓄧ial switch.
Given Alpine’s poor perfoꦕrmance in 2024, Gasly might fancy a new challenge.
While Al🌞pine is 🌄a works outfit, they’ve failed to deliver on that potential over the years.
ꦅGasly could be tempted into a switch to Grove, and given his age compared to Bottas🍬, he could be a more appealing option for Williams.
Esteban Ocon
It’s a similar story for 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Esteban Ocon.
Alpi🃏ne’s form leaves them vulnerable and Ocon is another major player on the driver market.
The Frenchman is also in the frame to join Audi s♛hould they fail 🐎to sign Sainz.

Ocon has been one of the unsung her🧜oes iඣn 2024, performing at an incredibly high level.
For Williams, he’d be a great coup, particularly as he seems to exꦺcel in underperfo💟rming machinery.
Zhou Guanyu
Like teammate Bottas, Zh🅷ou is likely to be on the market.
The Chinese driver ꦆis reportedly a front-runner to replace Kevin Magnussen at Haas, potentially alongside Oliver Bearman.
While Zhou lacks the ultimate outright pace,🔜 he's a steady performer on race day.
With fina♈ncial backing behind him, he's a possible option, albeit an underwhelming one.
