When Belgian Patrick Nève took the start of the 1977 Spanish Grand Prix, he was the first driver to take part in a Formula 1 Grand Prix for Williams Grand Prix Engineering. It was Williams' debut season, and their first car: the Williams FW06, was still in the pipeline and so the team gave Nève a year old March 761 to drive. With it he enjoyed limited success: a seventh place in the Italian Grand Prix being the highlight of his solitary season with the team.
Okay, it's not quite the Williams FW42 that the team will actually use to compete in the 2019 F1 World Championship, but it's the closest we've got just yet!
