SEASON WRAP
In the least experienced driver lineup on the grid Lance Stroll managed to win the overall H2H score against Sergey Sirotkin. But the two drivers were perhaps more closely matched than the net result shows. Stroll only managed to beat Sirotkin on track 9-8 in race result while the Russian soundly beat Stroll in Qualifying 13-8. Sadly for Sirotkin this was not enough for him to retain his seat for 2019.
With both drivers at times describing the Williams as undrivable in 2018 it was undoubtedly an extremely tough season for the entire team.
In 2019 Stroll moves to Racing Point Force India after his father Lawrence Stroll led a consortium to save the financially struggling team. Williams will see British rookie George Russell joined by Robert Kubica in one of the most amazing (and record breaking) comebacks in racing history. Hopefully this mix of youth and experience will serve Williams better in developing the car in 2019.
