Trident has announced that Calan Williams will not race with the team at the Formula 2 season finale in Abu Dhabi next month.
Williams joined F2 this year with the Italian squad, and scored his best result of the season in Jeddah, crossing the line in fourth place in the Sprint Race.
It marked his only top 10 result of the 2022 campaign.
Trident says that the Australian racer is currently focusing “on his future steps in motorsport” through his departure.
“Throughout the season, I know I demonstrated my capability at Formula 2 level,” Williams said.
“Jeddah was a great result and I have been very pleased with many of the races I have put together in my rookie season, often finishing just outside the points or experiencing misfortune when running inside the scoring positions.
“However, these things can happen in racing, and as the season progressed circumstances just did not fall my way.
“We are now at a point where it is important that I consider what is the best path for me to pursue in the interests of my ongoing career in motorsport.”
Trident is yet to announce who will replace Williams at the race event from the Yas Marina Circuit.
Giacomo Ricci, Team Manager Trident Motorsport added: “It was a pleasure to have the opportunity to work with Calan Williams in Formula.
“After 13 races, a fruitful working relationship with the Australian rookie ends, which has given Trident Motorsport the opportunity to appreciate a man, a professional and a driver of indisputable value.
“Trident Motorsport wishes Calan Williams and his management the best of luck in the upcoming professional challenges.”
