Formula One Features — January 1998

The most dramatic thing about the latest Grand Prix car from Williams Grand Prix Engineering is its bright red livery. Every since Williams shot to prominence in Formula 1 in 1979 the team has adopted a conservative attitude to its colors schemes, with white and green followed by white and blue. The new FW20 in its red Winfield colours and white and yellow flashes presents a much more aggressive approach from the team.

Jean-Yves Houe is the Formula 1 manager of Mecachrome, the French precision engineering company which will be running engines in Grand Prix racing this year with Williams and Benetton.
