Engine Mercedes Races 670 Wins 114 Titles 9 Last year 5th (138 points)

WILLIAMS had a bit of a comedown last year after finishing third in the constructors’ standings in 2015, once again showing that there’s no real answer for competitors with more money to spend. The big news over the winter for the Oxfordshire squad was the recruitment of technical director Paddy Lowe from Mercedes, although it will take time for his impact to be felt. Losing Bottas to Mercedes has also left the team with the unusual driver combination of an ‘unretired’ Felipe Massa and very raw young rookie Lance stroll.
