“The innovative use of lightweight materials, rapid product development and the maximisation of available space is very much at the heart of the work we do commercialising Formula 1-derived technology”
Williams has hooked up with JPA Design to leverage technology from racing-car design to create a more comfortable cabin environment using lighter-weight materials.
“I’ve only done about 11 proper laps in the car but it gives us a good understanding of where we are at, the limitations and what we need to work on.”

“Without analysing all the factors and particular causes of being late, just on a macro level, the fact there are more parts that are more complex has given more load to the system and consequently the system couldn’t carry the load.

How Williams ended up so far behind
“There’s a great job to be done and a great job of work and we certainly don’t underestimate the challenge there.”

“Unfortunately the car was not representative to what it should be, and this had a big impact on our test, our running programme of today. All the information was misleading and in some way also was difficult to get any information for Australia.”
