The Williams Formula 1 team has announced a new collaboration with Marvel, which will see its principal, James Vowles, and drivers Carlos Sainz and Alex Albon included in a first-of-its-kind comic.

According to the Grove outfit, the Williams trio will "join Marvel heroes to battle Doctor Doom as he threatens to take down the racing calendar." Marvel stars set to be included are Iron Man, Black Widow and Captain America.

The comic will be available online in early June and can be pre-ordered now. Special-edition covers will also become available for specific F1 events, including the Monaco Grand Prix. For those wanting to shop in-store, the comic will be on shelves across the United States in October.

Luke Timmins, director of merchandise and licensing at Williams, said: "Alex and Carlos are already heroes to our millions of fans, and now they get to prove it in print by uniting with the Marvel Super Heroes to save racing from Doctor Doom.

"We are proud to be bringing these two universes together for the first time, and hope it gives fans another way to find and fall in love with our iconic Atlassian Williams F1 Team.

 

"There is no better place than Miami to launch a unique collaboration like this, and with special edition covers for races around the world the story is only just beginning."

Vowles added on social media: "I’m really thrilled to share that Atlassian Williams F1 Team and Marvel have today announced a collaboration, which will see us go wheel to wheel with the Marvel Universe for the very first time.  

"Fans will be able to celebrate the collaboration with special edition covers at multiple Grands Prix across the season, starting in Monaco and on shelves at comic shops across the US in October.  

"Well done to all involved, a landmark moment for the team."
