阿尔本确认2027年继续效力威廉姆斯F1车队
亚历克斯·阿尔本与威廉姆斯车队签署短期续约合同，将在2027赛季继续留队，这也是他在威廉姆斯的连续第六个赛季。
亚历克斯·阿尔本承诺效力威廉姆斯F1车队至2027年
阿尔本将在威廉姆斯再战一个F1赛季，合同延长至2027年
亚历克斯·阿尔本已同意一份短期合同延长协议，将在2027年于威廉姆斯开始他连续第六个F1赛季。
阿尔本在2022赛季前加盟威廉姆斯，是今年年底合同到期的多位车手之一，外界对他以及队友卡洛斯·塞恩斯在这支表现不佳的车队的未来一直有诸多猜测。
但这位30岁的车手现已通过签署一份延长至2027年的一年期合同，将自己的近期未来托付给这支位于Grove的车队，他相信车队能够继续其长期重建，成为一支现代化的F1车队。
车队引述Albon的话说：“自2022年加入Atlassian 威廉姆斯 F1车队以来，这支车队所发生的转变难以用言语形容。艰难的一年并不能说明全部情况，它只会给我更多动力，与工厂和我们的车迷一起继续建设和努力，去成就伟大的事业。我们的故事还没有结束，所以我现在的全部注意力就是不惜一切代价让我们在积分榜上重返前列。”

车队负责人James Vowles表示，尽管2026年遭遇挫折——车队在去年攀升至第五名后跌至积分榜第九——这位英泰混血车手仍继续信任威廉姆斯，他对此感到“非常高兴”。
“亚历克斯从第一天起就是这项转型计划的领导者，而我们还有大量未竟的事业要去实现，”沃尔斯说。“亚历克斯是围场中最出色的车手之一，比任何人都更清楚我们近年来取得的巨大进步——与他续约表明了我们双方对前进方向的信心。”
今年早些时候，阿尔本成为威廉姆斯车队资历最深的现役车手：他在西班牙大奖赛上超越了奈杰尔·曼塞尔的纪录，并在最近结束的匈牙利大奖赛上为这支传奇车队完成了第100场比赛。队友塞恩斯尚未对车队的未来作出自己的承诺。

Alex Albon commits to Williams F1 team for 2027
Albon remains at Williams for another Formula 1 season, extending his deal to 2027
Alex Albon will stay at Williams for a sixth consecutive Formula 1 season in 2027 after agreeing a short-term contract extension.
Albon joined Williams ahead of the 2022 season and was one of several drivers out of contract at the end of this year, amid speculation over his and team-mate Carlos Sainz's future with the underperforming outfit.
But the 30-year-old has now committed his immediate future to the Grove-based squad by agreeing a one-year contract extension for 2027 as he backs the team to continue its long-term rebuild into a modern F1 operation.
“Since joining Atlassian Williams F1 Team in 2022, the transformation this team has made is difficult to put into words," Albon was quoted by the team. "One tough year doesn’t tell the full picture, and it only gives me more motivation to keep building and pushing together with the factory and our fans to achieve great things. Our story is not over yet, so my full focus now is on doing whatever it takes to get us back up the grid."

Team principal James Vowles said he was "delighted" that the Anglo-Thai driver has continued to put his faith in Williams despite 2026's blip, with the team slumping to ninth in the standings after climbing to fifth last year.
"Alex has been a leader of this transformation project since day one and we have plenty of unfinished business that we are determined to achieve," Vowles said. "Alex is one of the best drivers on the grid and knows better than anyone the enormous improvements we have made in recent years – re-signing him shows the belief we both have in the direction we are heading."
Earlier this year Albon became Williams' most tenured driver, overtaking Nigel Mansell in Spain before crossing the 100-race mark for the storied squad at the most recent Hungarian Grand Prix. Team-mate Sainz is yet to commit his own future to the team.
