Turun Sanomat reported that Baugur Group has bought 30 % of Williams, the group will remain as a silent partner but has reseved the right to buy out the shares of Frank Williams and and Patrick Head when Frank retires or is deemend unfit to lead, what ever that means.

Does this mean Toyota isn't getting it's claws on Williams after all? ;)

At the start of the season in Australia, Williams will surpass Enzo Ferrari's record of 38 years as an F1 entrant.

Fantastic
