Williams FW15C

Automobiles

The Williams FW15C was a Formula One car designed by Adrian Newey and built by Williams Grand Prix Engineering for the 1993 Formula One World Championship. It won both the Drivers' and Constructors' Championships in the last season before the FIA banned electronic driver aids, and along with the FW14B it was considered in 2005 to be one of the most technologically sophisticated Formula One cars of all time, with anti-lock brakes, traction control, active suspension and a semi-automatic and fully automatic gearbox. With Newey's aerodynamic input it had a narrower nose, sleeker airbox and engine cover and carefully sculpted sidepods, with about 12 percent better aerodynamics and an engine with 30 additional horsepower compared with the FW14B. The car was retired once the FW16 became available.
