[Rumours] Williams to be powered by Mercedes

Williams are destined to dwindle down to a bankrupt final row outfit.

There is nothing particularly wrong with this, albeit sad to see, but I can't really see it going any other way.

Yes, I read that too. My post you quoted was before the Renault engine deal (which BTW was a no brainer) was announced. The latest Caterham and Renault deal extends far beyond the F1 engine supply deal. Watch this space.

It always seems a really unhappy place somehow, their staff policy seems to be a revolving door, their suppliers too apparently. No way to build organizational competence imo.

Good get BJ!

Wonder how Williams would have fared in 2014 with Paddy Lowe running Technical? He was signed up by Wolff to go to Williams this year, before Wolff jumped ship to Mercedes. Lowe then followed Wolff. A part of me wishes Lowe had ended up at Williams.



Still no confirmation of where James Allison will end up. Williams could do with his services.
