Williams F1 team principal Vowles says he encourages Albon to speak his mind on the radio like he did in Miami. 'I've heard it a few times with him. But it's constructive, it's not negative.'
, Albon was heard to question the team's requests to push harder, and on a different occasion, to manage his tyres.
"I actually encourage it, I think it's a positive thing," Vowles told Motorsport.com."There's going to be no one better who knows what's going on in the car but him. I've heard it a few times with him. But it's constructive, it's not negative. "And it was a fine balance. He'll look back on it in hindsight and realise that whatever we did, that's where we were going to end up.
"That's why I mean Alex can look at it afterwards and say, 'OK I understand why you didn't know which way to go with it.'"Albon eventually finished the Miami race in 14th place, having slipped back from an encouraging 11th on the grid, but Vowles says there were positive signs given all 20 cars were still running at the flag.
