Does Williams hold the aces?
With the reuniting of a technical trio that tasted success at Benetton, more talent on the way, and a very strong start to 2014 testing, things are looking rosy for Williams, reckons JONATHAN NOBLE
The curry club is back. With the success of a Formula 1 team so dependent on how its individuals come together, a great spirit within a squad can often provide the catalyst for some pretty sensational things.
Get the right collection of people in place, and the magic flows. Just look at Williams.
If you wanted to single out one team that has landed on its feet in 2014 - through a combination of hard work, good fortunes and others getting it wrong - then you need look no further than Williams.
