A spokesman has now confirmed that Senna will race the very same chassis on the streets of Monaco this week. Otherwise, the garage fire "somewhat hampered" Williams' preparations for the famous race in the Principality, chief engineer Mark Gillan admitted. "But the impact has been mitigated by what can only be described as a herculean effort by the factory and our suppliers to restock both the damaged equipment and car parts," he said.
Gillan also said rival teams made "generous offers" of help. Maldonado's chassis was safely in parc ferme at the time of the fire. (GMM)
