Tribute to Williams by Stuart McIntyre Williams F1 was founded in 1977by Frank Williams and Patrick Head, as Williams Grand Prix Engineering. In July 1979, Clay Regazzoni won the teams first Grand Prix at Silverstone and the following year, Alan Jones won 5 Grand Prix, winning the Drivers and Constructors Championship. During the 1980s, the teams reliability record helped them to achieve unchallenged and crushing victories in the Constructors Championships of 1980, 1981, 1986 and 1987. In 1990, Nigel Mansell rejoined the team and in 1992, he became the first driver to win 9 races in one season, achieving 14 pole positions and securing both the Drivers World Championship and the Constructors Title for Williams F1 and Renault. In 1993 Alain Prost took up where Mansell had left off and won their second and consecutive Drivers and Constructors Championship double, driving the FW15. Tragically, in the following year, Ayrton Senna was killed at Imola in only his thrid Grand Prix for Williams. Damon Hill the rose in stature and saved a desperately sad year by challenging Michael Schumacher for the Drivers Championship. However, it was 1996 before Damon Hill won the Drivers Championship, becoming the first second generation driver to achieve the title. In 1997, the Championship belonged to Jacques Villeneuve and the Williams-Renault team. In 2000, Williams teamed up with the might of BMW and in 2001 they were back to winning ways with Ralf Schumacher and Juan Pablo Montoya achieving four Grand Prix victories. |
Jordan Clean Sweep by Michael Turner. The first Grand Prix victory for the Jordan team came at the 1998 Belgian G.P., with Damon Hill and Ralf Schumacher finishing first and second in their Jordan Mugen-Hondas.

Star Quality by Michael Turner. Jenson Button, in his first full season of Formula One, leads Williams-BMW team-mate Ralf Schumacher into Stowe corner whilst holding fourth place early in the 2000 British Grand Prix. |
Sibling Rivalry II by Robert Tomlin. Unique in the history of Formula One motor racing are the Schumacher brothers. After seeing the success of his elder brother, whilst climbing through the ranks to stardom in F1, Ralf Schumacher had his sights set firmly upon beating his illustrious brother. At last in a competitive car, we see Ralfs Williams BMW leading Michaels Ferrari through the Veedol chicane at Nurburgring during the 2003 European Grand Prix. This event which Ralf went on to win turned the tables on the 2001 race which also saw the two fighting wheel to wheel at times but in that case Ralf could not quite match the Ferrari of his brother Michael. The race threw the championship for both constructors and drivers wide open and set the stage for one of the most exciting conclusions of a championship season for years. |
The Italian Job by Michael Thompson Ralf Schumacher winning the first Grand Prix of his career in the Williams FW23.
