About this title

Synopsis

Since 1972 Williams has won eight Constructors' Championships and six Drivers' Championships. But the team's seeming invincibility is under threat. This all-color book examines the troubled Williams operation, still criticised over the sacking of Damon Hill, battling against born-again Ferrari, and haunted by the Ayrton Senna court case. Woven into the tale are absorbing anecdotes about relations with the drivers, designers, suppliers, and sponsors.
