Alex Lynn says he is "determined" to prove he is worth an F1 seat after being retained as Williams development driver.
Williams announced Lynn will remain as development driver on Monday morning, with the team aiming to help the 22-year-old fight for this year's GP2 championship.
The British driver will be taking part in his second season in GP2 this year, staying with the DAMS team. In his rookie season Lynn secured two victories as he finished sixth in the standings, and he knows he needs to deliver results on the track as well as within his development role in order to impress Williams.
“I am really delighted to continue in my Development Driver role with the team this season and remain grateful for their on-going support," Lynn said." I relish the opportunity to build on the hard work I put in last year, to continue helping develop the Formula One car and gaining further knowledge of the inner workings of the Williams team from both a technical and human perspective.
“With the team’s blessing and support, my main focus this season will be to fight for the GP2 title. I am determined to prove myself worthy of graduating to become a fully-fledged Formula One race driver at some point in the not too distant future.”
