F1 | Williams, the financial resources should also be enough for 2021
Michael Latifi appears to be the number one candidate to take over the team
For Williams the last few seasons have certainly not been memorable. In 2018 some signs had arrived, while last year the serious delay in testing, the farewell of Paddy Lowe and the management difficulties meant that Kubica collected the only championship point in the daring race at Hockenheim. In all this, we also add the economic difficulties: we know that Williams is for sale, but last December's sale of 75% of the Advanced Engineering division and the arrival of capital by Michael Latifi will allow the team to stay afloat not only in 2020, but also in 2021 despite the emergency due to Coronavirus. Furthermore, the Canadian seems to be the number one candidate to take over the team in the near future. There are many voices, even from people at the forefront of the sales process.
“Williams had a very difficult 2018, they knew very well that 2019 would start badly – you read it above Forbes. If the pre-season tests and the first races go a certain way, by mid-March you already know where you are more or less. Williams was aware that he had to act: he had to have a long-term vision and that is what he did. The team never thought of asking Latifi to invest, they wanted to get by on their own."
