Williams chief Claire Williams has promised that the signing of Pat Symonds will be the first of several arrivals at the underperforming Grove team as they look to claw their way back up the grid.

Although Symonds will arrive at the team with over half of the current season completed, Williams confirmed that the 60-year-old would work on both the existing FW35 and next year's in-development challenger. "Pat will divide his time between trying to make improvements to this year's car but then working on the 2014 car as well," she added. "We're Williams - we wouldn't stop developing a car mid-way through the season."
