James Vowles has revealed some of Williams' F1 facilities are '20 years out of date' after joining the team from Mercedes.
team that won eight consecutive world championships to a squad that finished bottom in four of the past five seasons.
"There are some elements that are 20 years out of date, which makes sense if you think through the history of this team. The investment it had was zero for around about 20 years and then an investment firm came through. "If you took a group of people and hid them away, and another group of people hid them away, they evolve to different stages," he explained."And that's what's happened, the view of what excellence is is completely different to what it really is today, and you have to move things forward.
"The other thing on people is that very clearly at Mercedes, you could attract near enough anyone you wanted one with phone call."According to Dave Robson, Vowles' fresh perspective and Mercedes experience has made the team realise that there is"more to do than we thought there was. Getting his experience of what state-of-the-art genuinely looks like has been quite enlightening.
"This organisation knows that we need to change that we need to move on. That we need to evolve to have success, and everyone is ready to do that."
