Williams retains Russell and Latifi for 2021 season

Williams has formally confirmed that George Russell and Nicholas Latifi will continue to race for the team in Formula 1 next year. Long-term Mercedes protégé Russell stepped up to a Williams Formula 1 seat on a multi-year deal at the start of 2019, following on from back-to-back titles in GP3 and Formula 2.
