F1: Franco Colapinto to Replace Nicholas Latifi at Williams for Remainder of the Season
In a shocking turn of events, Franco Colapinto has been confirmed as the new driver for the Williams F1 team, replacing Nicholas Latifi for the remainder of the 2023 season.
The 21-year-old Argentine driver, who currently competes in the Formula 2 championship, has been handed the opportunity to make his F1 debut with the Grove-based outfit.
Colapinto’s promotion comes after Latifi’s disappointing performances this season, which have led to speculation about his future with the team. The Canadian driver has struggled to make an impact, failing to score a single point in the constructors’ championship.
Meanwhile, Colapinto has been impressing in Formula 2, securing two podiums and finishing fifth in the standings. His experience and pace in junior categories have earned him a chance to test his skills at the highest level.
"We are thrilled to welcome Franco Colapinto to the Williams team," said the team’s chief executive officer, Jost Capito. "He has shown immense potential in Formula 2, and we believe he can make a significant impact in Formula 1."
Colapinto will join Alex Albon at the Williams team, who has been struggling to adapt to the FW44 car this season. The Thai driver has scored just six points, putting the team at the bottom of the constructors’ championship.
This sudden change has sent shockwaves through the F1 paddock, with many fans speculating about Latifi’s future and Colapinto’s potential.
