Williams. For some fans new to Formula 1, this British independent is ‘just’ a perennial back marker and occasional podium finisher. For many though, Sir Frank Williams’ eponymous team was, for much of the 1980s and the mid-late 1990s, the benchmark in Formula 1. Indeed, in F1’s 76-year history, only two teams – the vaunted Ferrari, and current hypercar heavyweight/reigning World Champion McLaren – have won more Constructors’ Championships than independent Williams.
