Tuesday April 22, 1997

Chief designer at Williams Adrian Newey will leave Williams for McLaren. This was rumoured for a long time because Newey had made it clear he wanted to leave. A Williams statement said: "The parties have agreed that no further comment will be made on this matter."

The Williams team already lost one of their leading aerodynamicists, Egbahl Hamidy, to the Stewart team last year.

Newey will start his work for McLaren on August 1.
