From the hard privateer years of Frank Williams Racing Cars to the creation of Williams Grand Prix Engineering, the team rose from financial struggle to become one of the most successful constructors the sport has ever seen.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Last Great Independent Grand Prix Team\u003c\/strong\u003e tells the full story of Williams' extraordinary journey through Formula One: the first victories with Alan Jones and Clay Regazzoni, the world titles of the Cosworth era, the fierce Honda turbo years, the technical dominance of the Renault partnership, the triumphs of Nigel Mansell, Alain Prost, Damon Hill, and Jacques Villeneuve, and the heartbreak of Ayrton Senna's fatal accident at Imola in 1994.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis fact-based narrative follows the team through glory, tragedy, rivalry, reinvention, decline, sale, and survival.
