t-mobile's colour is pink which would make for an interesting car livery

a t & t is great news for Williams.
Hopefully a solid financial platform and Toyota will see a better season ahead. |

Ah well, Williams no longer interest me now that Webber won't be there . I wish them *cough* the best of luck *cough* for the future!

Well its the opposite for me. I supported them before Webber and will continue after he's gone. I don't actually like Webber that much, but Frank and Patrick will always be my favourites of the F1 pit lane (equal to Murray!)

Hopefully this will give Williams a leg back up to where they ought to be.
Better finances, a decent driver line-up and some top new aero guys. Yep, things look better for 2007. *crosses fingers* |

Good news for Team Willy. I hope they come back really strong next year. FWIW I think the Cosworth engine would have been better if they'd had the backing to test etc. |

At an estimated 50 million per season, it is a lot of money, and I believe it will make a substantial difference for them next year. So hats off to Sir Frank, now that he has the big fish, the medium size fish are easier to land too.

This looks like a major coup for Sir Frank.....
The rate at which Williams were falling away was quite alarming and i could see them folding in the next 5 or 6 years. This new deal will really give the guys back in the factory a huge shot in the arm...coupled with Toyota power. I hope this will deal will help thm steady the ship and slowly begin an upturn in momentum.. |
