Williams will make no announcement regar꧙ding its final driver line-up for 2020 until the end of the current season, deputy team chief Claire Willi🃏ams has confirmed.

Following Robert🐽 Kubica’s decision to quit t💯he team following the 2019 season, Williams has been considering it🦹s options for the second seat alongside George Russell, who remains 🎐on a multi-year deal.

Formula 2 title contender Nicholas Latifi is widely expec⭕ted to take up the seat, having spent this year working in a development role at Williams in a deal that has included a number of Formula 1 practice appearances.

Latifi featured in FP1 i𒆙n both Mexico and the United States, and is set to do so again in Brazil next week ahead of his final F2 appearance in Abu Dhabi.

But Claire Williams said it was not a firm indication of the team’ꦬs plans for next year, which would only be confirmed following the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Pr♊ix on November 1.

“The plan was always to have Nicholas Latifi in the car for these practice sessions that you’re seeing him in, in the next couple of races and in💞 Mexico as well,” Williams said in Aust𓂃in last weekend.

“It’s no clear indication. We’ve made it very clear that we won’t be making our driver announcement for tha﷽t second seat for 2020 until after Abu Dhabi this year.”

Latifi currently sits second in the standings with one round remaining, 1🎉0 points clear of Luca Ghiotto in second place, pꩲutting him on course to gain the Super License points required to race in F1 next year.
