Williams expresses an interest in Sergio Perez

Claire Williams has admitted that her team is keeping an eye on Sergio Perez for the 2017 season.

With current drivers Felipe Massa and Valtteri Bottas both at the end of their contracts this season, many drivers have been linked with the team, including Daniil Kvyat, Lance Stroll, and Jenson Button.

Another driver on the team's shortlist is Sergio Perez.

While the Mexican is contracted to Force India for 2017, he has repeatedly said that he and his backers have yet to decide where he will be next year.

"Sergio has done a great job this year, he is an intelligent driver, and of course he is going to be someone we are looking at," Williams said.

"He is (also) very eloquent, so commercially he would be strong for any team. Of course he is going to be someone you'd consider if he is available."

    He is performing well this year. So I hope he will get a seat at Willams.
    Williams has more experience so they should be able to build a better car for 2017 than Force India.
