1996 Japanese Grand Prix

By Michaelmad, ago

It’s hard to believe that Damon Hill‘s World Championship win was 25 years ago today. In some ways it feels like a lifetime ago, and yet in others it feels like just yesterday we were all getting up early with our Union Jacks (or ‘Union Flags’ as the more pedantic Read more…

1995 British Grand Prix

By Michaelmad, ago

The British Grand Prix on 16th of July 1995 was the eighth of the 17 rounds of the 1995 Formula 1 Grand Prix season. It was a season that had begun full of promise for the Williams F1 team, but that optimism had taken repeated knocks Williams finding themselves being Read more…

By Michaelmad, ago

The 1977 Spanish Grand Prix at Jarama on the 8th of May saw the Formula 1 circus arrive back in Europe after the opening four Grand Prix of the season in Argentina, Brazil South Africa and the US. Jarama, just north of Madrid, wasn’t a popular venue for a Grand Read more…

1982 Brazilian Grand Prix

By Michaelmad, ago

There was a time, many moons ago, when Formula 1 allowed, nay rewarded true innovation. Twenty six cars would line up on the grid on a Sunday afternoon, each one had its own unique design philosophy and a look so distinct that if the cars were all painted white, you Read more…

1988 British Grand Prix

By Michaelmad, ago

The British Grand Prix was round eight of the 1988 Formula 1 World Championship. Williams’ Nigel Mansell usually took some beating on home soil, but this year it was going to be different.

1997 Hungarian Grand Prix

The Hungarian Grand Prix was the eleventh round of the 17 round 1997 Formula 1 season and the battle between Ferrari’s Michael Schumacher and Williams’ Jacques Villeneuve was poised nicely.

Michael Schumacher is a divisive Read more…

1997 European Grand Prix

By Michaelmad, ago

The European Grand Prix at Jerez, Spain was the finale of the 1997 Formula 1 World Championship, and the race that would decide the 1997 drivers title. It would prove to be one of the most controversial races of the time. Two drivers were in contention to win the championship Read more…

1979 British Grand Prix

By Michaelmad, ago

It’s funny to think, for F1 fans of a certain age that is, that there was a time when Williams Grand Prix hadn’t won a Grand Prix. Probably not so difficult for newcomers to the sport to imagine: a team now not winning races, once not winning races, but there Read more…

2012 Spanish Grand Prix

By Michaelmad, ago

11th, 14th, DNF, DNF, 14th, DNF, 13th, 19th, 8th, DNF. That’s Pastor Maldonado’s ten results previous to the Spanish Grand Prix of 2012. With that in mind, who can blame Williams for arriving at the Circuit de Catalunya, just outside of Barcelona without great expectations for the weekend. But it Read more…
