Williams will miss the first day of Formula One’s pre-season testing in Spain on Monday because they have yet to finish their car, the former champions said on Sunday. “Unfortunately, we have had to delay the start of our pre-season Barcelona test to Tuesday morning,” deputy principal Claire Williams said in a statement. Russell will be first to drive the car on Tuesday, all being well, with Kubica on Wednesday and both on Thursday. Canadian reserve Nicholas Latifi will also be in the car on Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday morning. Other teams, including Mercedes and Red Bull, have had their new car running on track already for shakedown sessions, however.
