	Drivers ready for 2003

	With the launch of the new WilliamsF1 only a short while away, for WilliamsF1 Technical Director Patrick Head he is content with the fact that both of the teams drivers are ready to challenge Ferrari in the coming season. In an interview for the British newspaper “The Independent” Head commented on how both drivers had been working hard in readiness for the 2003 season. Head said: "We thought last year that Juan was perhaps relying too much on natural talent and not putting enough thought into his work. "He realises it would be a great waste if he didn't achieve more with the talent he has. But I think he realises he needs more than that if he is to beat Michael and everybody in the team has been impressed with his diligence and application in this winter's testing." In regard to Ralf Patrick added: "I think generally Ralf is in good shape. He's lost a bit of weight, he's cheerful and chatty and very much more positive than before. He's raring to go. "I'm sure both our drivers, for their part, are saying, “Let’s hope those buggers back at the factory come up with something better this time. I think the car will be better."
