Love Williams, I reckon that back in 2002 it was costing them near to 200 million to go racing (Ferrari were at their most ridiculous around this period with a budget in the region of 360 million). Unlike the big firms old Frank has always had to go out hunting for sponsorship with a bit more intensity than the other small teams because his is a very big small team or a very small big team (certainly in comparison with Mclaren [who'd just moved factory's to their super fuck off high tech yin yang design mothership and thus comfortably slipped into the big league], B.A.R and Jaguar [Fords millions]). Thing is with a history like Williams have they've got to produce and back then to even be able to stick your car at the front of the mid table and hope for the odd podium you had to spunk at least 180 mill'. All their budget came/comes (except for this years pay to drive driver Pastor Maldonado) from advertising on their cars so maybe what we might think of as a team losing it's direction and competitiveness was infact a team going like stink just to retain its front of the mid pack position.

but you already know all this so why am i waffling again???

Wow, working at Williams. fucking awesome.
