Williams F1 to Celebrate 50 Years of Racing in 2027
16 Oct
Summary
- Williams Racing plans a year-long celebration for 2027.
- The team will mark five decades of continuous Formula One racing.
- Founded in 1977, Williams has secured nine constructors' titles.
In 2027, the venerable Williams Formula One team will commemorate a remarkable milestone: fifty years of continuous participation in the sport.
This upcoming year-long celebration will place Williams in an elite group, alongside Ferrari and McLaren, as the only teams to have achieved such a significant and enduring presence at the highest level of motorsport. Their legacy is marked by substantial achievements, including nine constructors' championships and seven drivers' titles secured between 1980 and 1997.
The team's journey began in 1977, founded by the visionary Frank Williams and Patrick Head. For many years, it remained a family-owned operation until 2020, when it was acquired by the U.S.-based private investment firm, Dorilton Capital.
