Williams will have a "B" version of the FW24

THE Williams team is not admitting it officially at the moment but there will be a "B" version of the FW24 which the team will introduce later this year. The car will have a number of developments which it is hoped will bring them up to the pace of Ferrari. The team is however looking in the longer term as well, trying to find a big jump forward to get ahead of Ferrari next year.

The arrival of the FW23B last year was a big step forward the team and resulted in the strong performances at the end of the 2001 season.
