Williams had without a doubt the worst driver line-up on the 2018 grid and Sergey Sirotkin completed their desperate duo. Some (most notably Will Buxton) would object to having the Russian on this list, but the fact remains that he finished below his team-mate Lance Stroll in the driver's standings and didn't show any real flashes of brilliance.

Sirotkin finished bottom of the championship, with a single point that was only earned after Romain Grosjean's disqualification in Italy. In terms of finishing position, it's pretty close between Stroll and Sirotkin with the Canadian edging it 9-7 when both have finished. With a record like that, it's no wonder Williams chose against retaining his services for 2019.

It's not all bad for Williams, though, with Formula 2 champion George Russell joining and Robert Kubica being promoted from his reserve driver role, the Grove outfit have a much better chance of challenging the midfield, but they must improve their car.
