Williams

Williams was founded by Frank Williams and Patrick Head and has raced in Formula 1 under its current identity since 1977. Clay Regazzoni gave it a first win at Silverstone in 1979, and it went on to win nine constructors’ championships, with drivers’ titles for Alan Jones, Keke Rosberg, Nelson Piquet, Nigel Mansell, Alain Prost, Damon Hill and Jacques Villeneuve. Since 2020 it has been owned by investment firm Dorilton Capital.

The team is based in Grove, Oxfordshire, and uses Mercedes power units. James Vowles has been team principal since 2023, and in 2025 Williams finished fifth in the constructors’ championship, its best result since 2017. The drivers are Alex Albon and Carlos Sainz.
