Rokit break ties with Williams; join hands with Mercedes
Williams are on the lookout for investors to help them stay afloat in F1. Apart from that, they are also looking for sponsors for the season.
This is after Williams and Rokit decided to terminate their agreement, for reasons unspecified yet. The latter has joined Mercedes instead, shocking the Williams hierarchy.
Rokit has also confirmed its split with Williams won’t have any impact on its title partnerships with Venturi in Formula E and the W Series.
Deputy team principal Claire Williams spoke on their future prospects, and sounded optimistic.
“Williams has always done a good job of attracting new partners into our sport, into our team and I believe and have every confidence that we will continue to do so.
“This is a great brand. It is a great team. And we’re on a very exciting journey.”
