In a homage to the iconic British team, founded by Sir Frank Williams, and a nod to the present, the Williams FW14B made famous by Nigel Mansell, will share the spotlight with an FW42 show car similar to that campaigned by George Russell and Robert Kubica in the 2019 Formula 1 season.
The two cars will be on display in the Formula One international pit straight complex and housed in a re-creation of a contemporary and historic pit garage.
Adding a further dash of British flavor to the event, Prodrive will bring a collection of 10 cars from their racing stable.
Among them will be the 1984 Rothmans Porsche Rally Team 911 SC RS and the Subaru Impreza which took Colin McRae and Richards Burns to FIA World Rally Championships.
Representing touring cars is a 2000 Ford Mondeo Super Touring car and the Ford Performance Racing Falcon BA from Australian V8 Supercars.
In addition, there is the stunning 2018 Aston Martin Vantage GTE which currently competes in the FIA World Endurance Championship.
“We are delighted that the ROKiT Williams Racing Formula One team will have a presence at SpeedMachine and provide a trip down memory lane for motorsport fans,” said Torben Olsen, the Managing Director of World RX for IMG, the series promoter.
“Together with the Prodrive exhibition, we will have the very best of world-renowned British motorsport heritage on display along with plenty of other activities for SpeedMachine fans.”
The World RX of Great Britain, round four of the FIA World Rallycross Championship, is the racing centerpiece of the SpeedMachine Festival.
