It's a Williams Formula 1 special this month! Simon Taylor has lunch with Patrick Head – who has also taken us through the intricacies of the FW14B, while Nigel Roebuck writes about the team's early days. It's not to be missed.

I started to follow F-1 in 1955 from Canada and Moss was my idol then and still is. He epitomizes the gentlemanly side of motorsport. Thank you for letting him take over the reins for a day. Brilliant idea.
I once saw him race in the late 1950s at Watkins Glen Formula Libre race in October – it snowed for the last few laps !!
Once at Sebring some young guys were shouting “Hey Stirl” in order to get a photo. Moss did not respond. My friend said “Excuse me Mr. Moss” and he turned and the resulting photo is a gem.
Let’s hope F-1 can find it’s way back to the core values we hold so dearly.
Sincerely,
