Robert Kubica has admitted Williams' drivers are suffering from more than just a lack of pace in 2018.
In Barcelona, Sergey Sirotkin admitted he struggled throughout the weekend with "seat comfort".
"Let's say it this way to not upset anyone -- the problem is with seat comfort," said the Russian.
It is believed Lance Stroll is suffering with a similar problem, and Robert Kubica, Williams' reserve driver, confirmed the issue.
"We do not have too much comfort in this car, but it has been known since November," he told Eleven Sports.
"Problems have to be solved in the winter rather than pretending that everything is good to make it look nice politically.
"I do not drive, so I don't say anything else," the former BMW and Renault driver added.

Williams are in dire need of a fast reliable F1 driver. Come on NIco ... come out of retirement and lead the Williams F1 team.

Id say give it to Robert - more than capable and the risks are so low relative to staying with the established two average at best drivers. Give it a go Williams and end all this speculation. If Robert crashes and burns, then you can rightly say 'told you so' - but I say this now - if he is given a chance - he will outperform his team, all other things being equal.

It has been such an utterly embarrassing season for Williams so far. At every level.

Its too late for this car. No matter how much they work on it, it just wont work out for them. Might aswell bin this year and focus on 2019.
