Nicholas Latifi races under the Canadian Flag
Nicholas Latifi’s father is an Iranian-Canadian businessman but Latifi being born in Montreal, Canada has opted to race in Formula One under the Canadian Flag.
So far in his F1 career, Latifi has entered 41 Grand Prix and races with the number 6 on his car. His most recent outing was at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix where he was not able to finish the race and had to settle with a DNF.
Nicholas Latifi being at Williams has not had the car under him that is capable of scoring points on a regular basis and hence has been seen competing at the back end of the grid on a regular basis.
Nicholas Latifi has so far scored 7 points on his F1 career
The Williams team has been languishing at the back end of the grid for quite some time now and this has not allowed their drivers to compete for points with the other teams.
Latifi throughout his F1 career has been at the Williams F1 team so it does not come as a massive surprise that Latifi so far in his F1 career has scored only 7 points.
The highest that Latifi has ever finished a race was at 7th position during the 2021 season. Last year was the most rewarding season that Latifi has had in F1 and given the promising campaign of last season, Latifi would be looking to add a few more points finishes to his CV during 2022.
