Alex Albon may be a Williams driver in 2022, but he’ll also still have ties to Red Bull – something the latest episode of The Race F1 Podcast attempts to unravel.

Glenn Freeman joins Edd Straw to discuss the reasons for [Albon’s dual allegiance](https://www.the-race.com/formula-1/williams-signs-albon-retains-latifi-for-2022-f1-season/) and why both [Williams and Red Bull are a little coy](https://www.the-race.com/formula-1/red-bull-has-released-albon-williams-but-retains-links-to-him/) about his exact status.

There’s also a look at whether Williams made the right choice given the myriad alternatives potentially on offer for Williams, and the question of whether Albon can [‘do a Gasly’](https://www.the-race.com/formula-1/why-williams-is-betting-on-albon-to-be-its-gasly/) and emerge as a midfield star after being dropped by Red Bull Racing.

Nicholas Latifi is not forgotten as he was also confirmed as a Williams driver, so we also discuss his hopes of emerging as Williams team leader.
