illiams 'embarrassed' at Spa
Team continue to lose ground in Belgium

Another dismal showing from Rosberg, Nakajima
and the Williams Toyota team
Sir Frank Williams on Saturday admitted witnessing his Formula One cars qualify so badly at Spa Francorchamps was nothing short of 'embarrassing.

Four-tenths slower than the next quickest car, Nico Rosberg qualified 15th on the legendary Belgian track, while his team-mate Kazuki Nakajima will start Sunday's race next to last.

"This result is more than disappointing. It is embarrassing," said Williams, the co-owner and Team Principal of the Grove-based squad.

The Toyota-powered FW30 features some updates for this race weekend, but Williams reveals that the factory is now fully focused on next year.


"I hope we will look better then," Williams, whose team has won nine constructors' titles and seven drivers' championships, mostly recently in 1997, explained to motorsport-total.com.

The 66-year-old said there may be some more small additions for the car this year, "but essentially we are going to have to make the best of what we have got. Our concentration is on 2009," Williams said.
