Albon backed up the team's choice to run only him in Australia with a strong result, but his teammate is still paying for his crash.
The fallout from Alex Albon's crash ahead of the Australian Grand Prix will continue for two more races, and the impact will once again fall on Albon's teammate, Logan Sargeant. The team will not complete a new chassis until the Miami Grand Prix in May, so Sargeant will race in the slightly heavier repaired chassis in Japan this weekend.
Williams has yet to score a point this season, but Albon out-scored his rookie teammate 27 to 1 last year and remains the team's best hope to beat out currently slower entries from Alfa Romeo and Alpine before either team has a chance to catch up to Williams on pace as they develop their cars. Albon now has finishes of 15th, 11th, and 11th, and a larger penalty to Fernando Alonso after Australia would have awarded him a point last time out in Melbourne.
