Williams crews came together at the team's factory in Grove on Monday to celebrate the British outfit's best start to an F1 season in six years.
The achievement came courtesy of Alex Albon's spirited drive to P10, but rookie Logan Sargeant followed up his teammate's performance with an impeccable debut race that landed him in 12th position.
"Wow, what a fantastic way to start this season!" commented a very proud James Vowles, Williams' new team principal, after Sunday's race.
"For Logan, first race ever in Formula 1 and finishing 12th – solid performance from start to finish! And for Alex, he did this incredible job, always defending to faster cars behind.
"What I'm proud of and what I'm pleased to see is that there's a good set of foundations to work from.
"I think our performance will probably be up and down from here.
"We can't expect to have this luxury going forward. McLaren I'm sure will get everything together.
"But in the meantime we've got to pick every single point we can."
