The rumours started when the Porsche Formula E Instagram account changed to Porsche Motorsport with a sneak peek video that looked like it included a distorted side profile of Williams Racing founder, Frank Williams.

A spokesperson for Williams shot the rumours that Porsche were buying Williams, stating:

“The rumours that Williams Racing is up for sale are inaccurate.

“We are open to any discussions regarding the supply of engines with manufacturers from 2026 when the new engine regulations come in.

However, many fans are still hopeful for a collaboration between the two companies. No announcements have been made to confirm a partnership in any other capacity.

Albon will be driving alongside American driver Logan Sargeant, who is heading into his rookie season, in 2023. The F1 season will be starting with the Bahrain Grand Prix on 3rd - 5th March.
