Webber and Rosberg with fresh engine

By on

Both Williams F1 drivers will benefit form new Cosworth V8 engines at Imola this weekend. Both drivers had bad luck in the last 2 races in Malaysia and Australia where they failed to cross the finish line.

Simon Corbyn, head of F1 race engineering, Cosworth "In order to ensure the best possible engine reliability in Imola, both drivers will start the event with fresh CA2006 Series 2 engines. As neither Mark nor Nico finished the previous race, they will not suffer a grid penalty as a result of this decision.

Cosworth continue to work closely with Williams to carefully manage race engine usage and running conditions, while the usual challenge of delivering the best possible performance without compromising engine reliability remains."
