Gutted , absolutely Gutted . So long as the TEAM survives( Name will go I expect ) , I will be OK about it . They have either been in total denial for a while now , or just arrogant .
I'm not sure it was arrogant just Williams sticking to their principals of making as much in house as possible. I sort of feel sorry for them as F1 moved on and Williams stayed with their methodology. It would be nice to keep the Williams name same as it would be nice for Jordan name to still be there. A little late, maybe, for Stroll to buy them. Although maybe that is where the Merc sale rumours come from? Anyone know why their sponsorship deal, that was recently extended to 2023, with Rokit has been ended? Liberty will be worried, lots of uncertainty and no concorde agreement in place!!!!!!!
Seems F1 is starting to crumble. Gutted about Williams though. I was hoping it would come right for them with the budget cap and if merc and Renault left
According to the report Williams terminated it with immediate effect. I assume they (Rokit) refused to pay anything in the absence of racing and maybe wanted to pay less when they did.
Daddy Latifi will buy them I expect ( Ahead of Daddy Stroll ) as I THINK the former is MUCH richer that the latter . Might be wrong though .
I think Williams will be keen to get financing/sell the team but they are not completely stupid. I hope they wouldn't touch Poor Energy with a barge pole. Hopefully it's Poor Energy just trying to gain some more publicity as normal!!!
Looks like Silverstone is 2nd and 9th August!!!! I wonder if they will slot Hungary in between Austria? Maybe even space for 2 races between Austria and UK?
It doesn't seem to be endorsed by Williams, so as you say probably just the egotistical idiot at Rich Energy trying to get some free air time. If nothing has been signed, wonder if Williams would take issue with them doing this?
The image is from 2018 I think, back when Rich were in talks with Haas and Williams. Not current fortunately. Also, F1 starts a month today... apparently. Well a month tomorrow assuming Friday practice is a thing still.
