Vowles on Williams' messy 2026 preparations
Williams team principal James Vowles said the team’s preparation for the new-for-2026 regulations was “messy” because hundreds of small inefficiencies emerged when its new systems and procedures were put under stress while developing a more complex car. Vowles said: "It's tiny, small details but hundreds of them that add up. It's inefficiencies across the board that weren't taken into account and only came to light once you start stressing the system. The car we produced is the most complex. All of it is about one-and-a-half to two times more complex and it didn't go smoothly for much of that process."
