ABOUT WILLIAMS RACING:
Williams Racing is one of the most successful teams in Formula 1 history with 16 FIA Formula One World Championship titles since its foundation in 1977. Nine of these titles have been won in the Constructors’ Championship in association with Cosworth, Honda and Renault. The remaining seven titles were won in the Drivers’ Championship with Alan Jones, Keke Rosberg, Nelson Piquet, Nigel Mansell, Alain Prost, Damon Hill and Jacques Villeneuve.

After 44 years of family ownership, the team transitioned into new hands in 2020 with the sale of the Oxfordshire-based outfit to Dorilton Capital, with founder Sir Frank Williams stepping away from the company along with his daughter and Deputy Team Principal, Claire Williams. The American-based private investment firm subsequently brought onboard Jost Capito as CEO and Team Principal in February 2021 and, under his leadership, the team has entered a transformative new chapter, both on and off-track. As part of that transformation, the team aims to engage and inspire a new audience through a new brand strategy, Williams Beyond Racing.

Williams also launched a wide-ranging Sustainability Strategy in 2021 with a commitment to become Climate Positive by 2030 and became a signatory of the UNFCCC Sports for Climate Action Framework. The team was also awarded the FIA’s Three-Star accreditation, the highest level of certification from the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile’s Environmental Accreditation Programme.
