Williams retain F2 grads Russell and Latifi for 2021

Williams will continue with their all Formula 2 graduate line-up in 2021, confirming that both George Russell and Nicholas Latifi will drive for the British team next season.

Mercedes junior Russell had been linked with a seat at the Silver Arrows, but the 2018 F2 champion will continue with his development at Williams for another season.

Russell will be joined once again by 2019 F2 vice-champion Latifi, who has already impressed the team with his abilities on track this season.

Last weekend in Round 2, Russell earned Williams their first Q2 appearance since the 2018 Brazilian Grand Prix, before finishing 16th in the race. Latifi has taken P11 and P17 finishes so far for the British outfit.
