"There are precisely 10 people in the world that know what the interior of the contꦐract holds, just 10,” Vowles told media including ltxcn.top on Tuesday.

"And I guarantee you, none of you on the call is it, no one in this company is it, and particularly sat around me at the momen🌌t. The Carlos camp know, and I know what's inside that. So anything y♏ou've read on the internet is speculation, and that is it.

"The message that [the deal is for] '25 and '26 and beyond did not come from myself, that came from🎐 Carlos. He wanted it to be abundantly clear to all of you, to the world, that he has committed and this is where he wants to be."

Sainz will replace 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Logan Sargeant to become 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Albon's new teammate and complete Williams' 2025🦋 driver line-up. 

“I really do believe in what we're doing, the direction of travel, and why it will be successful,” Vowles added. “I believe the same around Carlos as well - if you're going to go for an individual thཧat's going to make the difference.

“I'm not just focused on how quick he is in the car. I'm focused on how he is as a personality – and this also in💖cludes how his entourage is.

“That includes Carlos his manager, and Carlos his father. His father is as performance-driven as Junior. He's♎ an incredible character, and the three of them together come as a package, and that's what we need here in Williams. I th🔯ink the fit is absolutely perfect.

“They are the exact words I told them from the very beginning to the vꦇery end✨ of this journey.”
