iWITNESS: If you hadn’t realised already, the crew that work in the motorhome are amongst the hardest working in the paddock, so it’s nice when their efforts get noticed. Christine Uphoff from team sponsors Randstad gave the catering team two bottles of bubbly on Sunday evening as a thank you for all of their efforts. According to maitre d Jo Turley it’ll be consumed on the beach in Monaco; talk about getting into the local spirit! Can we join you, Jo?!

iWITNESS: Speaking of Monaco, that’s exactly where the motorhome is headed. Yep, even though there’s two weeks between races, there’s no time to take it back to Grove. It’s heading straight to the Cote d’Azur and will begin to be assembled on Sunday. The lengthy process of disassembling our home-away-from-home began as soon as the chequered flag fell in Spain and continued long into the evening. But whilst the motorhome was taken down in the relatively spacious confines of the Barcelona paddock, it’ll be reassembled in the tightest paddock of the year in Monaco. It just goes to show that racing in the Principality isn’t just a challenge for the drivers!

iWITNESS: Yesterday we told you about the world champions that had been dining in the motorhome over the weekend. Alain Prost and Jacques Villeneuve had both sampled our wares and we speculated that 1996 world champion Damon Hill might be the next man through the door. Well, in the end Damon didn’t come, but we were right to expect another title-winner, and another Williams one at that – 1980 world champion Alan Jones. The likeable Aussie was always a firm favourite of the team, so it was a pleasure to welcome him back into the fold. Which one of our former stars will join us for lunch at the next race in Monaco, we wonder?

iWITNESS: As everyone knows, when the lights go out at the start of the race, there’s not a lot of love lost between the teams and drivers. But there are occasions when everyone comes together as one and unites behind a common cause, and a great example was pre-race on Sunday when all the drivers and Team Principals gathered on the grid with 200 school kids to publicise the FIA’s pioneering road safety campaign. Our team boss Sir Frank Williams – a passionate advocate for road safety – was there and his attendance was made all the more poignant by the fact that his wheelchair was pushed to the grid by former Marussia test driver Maria de Villota. Maria, like Frank, suffered severe injuries at the wheel of a car. Let’s hope the campaign is a roaring success.

iWITNESS: One of the joys of racing at the Circuit de Catalunya is its proximity to the fabulous city of Barcelona and on Saturday evening Pastor and team boss Frank headed into the heart of the Catalan capital to pay a visit to the McGregor store. This provided Pastor with a fantastic opportunity to meet his fans, all of whom looked delighted to meet the man who took the Spanish Grand Prix by storm last year

iWITNESS: During the day the motorhome is a very functional space, used for everything from feeding the team to hosting press briefings, but by night it’s often transformed into a sophisticated dining area by our highly-capable hospitality team. Saturday evening in Barcelona was no exception as the team put on a special dinner for sponsor Oris. As usual it proved to be a hugely successful event, much to the relief of our brand new hostess, Stefania. Good work, Stefi!

iWITNESS: This weekend has seen the newly-refurbished motorhome make its first appearance of the season, and what better way to kick off another year of fantastic hospitality than with some world champion guests? Williams’ 1993 world champion Alain Prost enjoyed a spot of lunch with the team on Friday, and today it was the turn of Williams’ 1997 champ Jacques Villeneuve. What are the odds that Williams’ 1996 world champion – and Sky TV pundit – Damon Hill turns up for a spot of grub on Sunday?!
12 May
iWITNESS: Last year’s Spanish Grand Prix was simultaneously one of the best and worst weekend’s of the year for Williams. It was our first victory since 2004, but we also suffered a post-race pit fire that left several members of staff injured. Thankfully no one was seriously hurt in the blaze and part of the reason for that was down to the terrific medical care that the team received. Therefore it was an absolute pleasure for Team Principal Sir Frank Williams to welcome four of the doctors back to the circuit on Saturday as our very special guests. Thank you, docs; we’re eternally grateful for your help.
