Dodgy Business: Ten of Williams' best
As Williams gear up for what could be the most pivotal season in their history, Tony Dodgins looks back over 30 years of race wins for the last remaining independent team and picks his ten favourites
As we prepare to head for Grove later this week and hear Sir Frank's thoughts on the season ahead, it hit me that 30 years will soon have gone by since that great day when Williams won their first grand prix, with Clay Regazzoni at Silverstone.
I'll remember that for so many reasons. Principal among them, I'd decided to enter the Sir William Lyons Award for aspiring young motoring journalists and had written to a number of people in F1 requesting an interview. Frank, maybe because he saw that I, like him, was born in South Shields - or maybe just because he's a decent fellow - had responded personally and fixed a time.
