F1: Q&A with Williams’ Sam Michael

Q: We're now entering the last third of the season. Has the team met the expectations it set itself at the start of the year?

"We have significantly improved our reliability since last year. We have had just two mechanical DNFs this season, which is in line with the front running teams. However, our target is to have 100% reliability so we will strive to achieve that in 2008.

"Performance-wise, we have also improved since last year. Although we want to do better, fifth in the Constructors' is where the car is at the moment. Our target for next year is to improve again as we head back towards the front end."


Q: Formula One has just enjoyed its annual summer break, does that mean any respite for the factory or does work continue apace on the car?
"It is the time
when the race team, who obviously spend a lot of the year travelling and therefore away from home, tend to take a short holiday. For the majority of the factory based staff, it's work as usual."


Q: There are just six races to go, what are the team's hopes for the remaining rounds?

"We will be looking to improve the FW29 and consolidate our current position in the Championship."
