Seems they were carrying a lot of ballast last year and are aiming to use that weight in more useful areas to performance this year.

Looks like Willimas have nicked Unilever's Rexona / Sure sponsorship from Lotus. Nice work Claire!
I also read rumours that Lotus are to be rebranded. Anyone know any more?
That was my thought. Bad news for Lotus if correct - I haven't read anything about Lotus picking up any new sponsors. Not that I would expect to, after the abortion they had last last season.I also read rumours that Lotus are to be rebranded. Anyone know any more?
And Williams have picked up Hackett as kit supplier, or "apparel", as you seem to have to call it in F1 - honestly, if they can't even call clothes clothes, what hope is there for making the sport more accessible to ordinary fans and dropping the jargon like prime and option? What's wrong with hard and soft FFS? Regardless of that, Williams should have some tasty (although no dount heinously expensive!) gear for sale this season.

I can see them being the number one challenge to Mercedes this year, really hope they can grab a win or two. I don't think there's anyone who doesn't want to see Williams back on top again.Andrew Benson's piece is here http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/formula1/30915475

I hope the supplier is better than last year. I ordered a Williams polo from gp legends in June of last year. It was the middle of November before gp legends were able to get hold of them! According to the email exchange I had with some one from gp legends they were let down by 3 different suppliers throughout the year and basically had no idea when they were going to get the merchandise until the day it arrived.And Williams have picked up Hackett as kit supplier, or "apparel", as you seem to have to call it in F1 - honestly, if they can't even call clothes clothes, what hope is there for making the sport more accessible to ordinary fans and dropping the jargon like prime and option?

The polo shirt is rather nice though so it was worth the wait.

I wonder what 'kit' is called at McLaren?Combined Team Personel Branding Platform and Modesty Protection Devices?
