Alex is the first active Williams driver to officially return to South Africa since Alain Prost's 1993 win at Kyalami – a fitting moment ahead of the team's 50th anniversary in 2027 

The visit reflects Williams' mission to bring F1 beyond the circuit and to the fans, building on renowned Fan Zones in cities such as Melbourne, Austin and Las Vegas that have welcomed more than 340,000 fans over the past two years

Alex’s appearance included a fireside Q&A with Super Group CEO Neal Menashe, a VIP experience with competition winners, content capture with South African content creators, and 1:1 media interviews with local and global broadcasters

Alex Albon said: "South Africa lived up to the hype - the fans here are as passionate as it gets. Meeting everyone who followed the FW48 roadshow, chatting with local creators, and sitting down with Neal made this a brilliant trip. Thank you to Super Group, Betway and Jackpot City for making it happen!"

Neal Menashe, CEO, Super Group, said: “Bringing Alex Albon and Atlassian Williams F1 Team to South Africa has been a fantastic opportunity to connect one of the world's most iconic sports with the passion of South African fans. Through Betway and Jackpot City, we are proud to create experiences that bring people closer to the action, and to help bring the excitement of Formula 1 beyond the racetrack and into local communities."
