The BMW WilliamsF1 Team heads to Barcelona next week for the fifth round of the 2005 season, the Spanish Grand Prix. Despite the teams' familiarity with the circuit as a testing venue, the race at the Circuit de Catalunya is one of the most demanding on the Formula One calendar. The region's erratic weather conditions provide a continual challenge to the cars' set-up while prevailing winds can compromise aerodynamic efficiency.
Having won over one third of the Spanish GPs held at the Catalunya track, the BMW WilliamsF1 Team is looking forward to drawing upon its experience in Barcelona next weekend. The team is also hoping that progress at the Silverstone test this week, combined with further aero developments for the cars, will provide a solid foundation to help drive the FW27s to a successful result.
The Circuit de Catalunya plays host to the sixth round of the Formula One season this weekend, the Spanish Grand Prix. Falling just one week after the European race at the Nьrburgring, the team will travel directly to Barcelona, a circuit at which WilliamsF1 has taken five victories since its debut on the Formula One calendar in 1991.
The Spanish Grand Prix opens Formula One's European season this weekend as the teams make the short journey to Barcelona for Round Four of the FIA Formula One World Championship. The Circuit de Catalunya, located just to the north of one of Spain's cultural hot-spots, is a favoured testing venue among the teams, and is a well known entity to the drivers who have all banked considerable mileage at the track over the winter.
Although the team's scheduled test at the Barcelona track last week was compromised by two accidents, the team is confident that its revised aero package will still deliver key performance advantages this weekend.
