Williams F1 Cars go on display in the National Motor Museum

The Williams FW11-07 from 1986 and Williams FW15C-01 from 1993 have joined the a chequered history displays. These cars stem from the era of Nigel Mansell, Nelson Piquet, Damon Hill, David Coulthard, and Alain Prost driving for the Williams team.

 

The FW11 was the Williams team’s challenger for the 1986 F1 season. Their main rival was the dominant McLaren MP4/2. The turbo-charged 1.5 litre Honda V6 engine was, at the time, the most powerful in F1, developing 800bhp in race trim and a staggering 1,200bhp for qualifying. The team’s drivers that year were Nelson Piquet and Nigel Mansell.
