BMW expects to be beaten by WilliamsF1

NEWS STORY
17/01/2006

It would be wholly naive to suggest that there are not certain F1 fans out there that would dearly love to see WilliamsF1 'stuff' Honda this season, and thereby wipe the smile from Jenson Button's face.

Similarly, there are some out there who, following the acrimonious break up of the 'marriage', would like to see the Grove outfit show a clean pair of heels to its former partner, BMW.

Speaking at today's launch, BMW team boss, Mario Theissen, admitted that since this is the German manufacturer's first season in F1, and that consequently the team is on a steep learning curve, it is quite likely that WilliamsF1 will enjoy the better campaign this season.

"It will be an interesting comparison," he told reporters this morning. "Certainly Williams starts from a higher level. I expect them to be stronger than us initially and we will have to catch up. In our first season we will mainly be gathering experience."
