Williams 30th

Happy 30th birthday Williams F1.

Yup they have been in the sport for 30 years now, and therefore are celebrating. Over the next couple of months during testing they will run the car (FW29B) in 6 colour schemes to reflect their history.

The team will compete in their 500th GP this season (at Turkey this year), They will record their 50,000th racing lap sometime this year (around Spain if all goes well).

Frank Williams will take part in his 600th GP this year at Monaco, that’s 39 years in the sport, where he has only missed 23 races so far. But that is not the icing on the cake, no he will officially overtake Enzo Ferrari as the longest running F1 person this year.

We say good luck to the team, and lets hope their FW30 will be a cracker.
