Williams has announced the signing of David Worner and Jonathan Carter in an attempt bolster its technical team following a difficult couple of years.
Worner will hold the role of chief designer. He is currently working for the Red Bull/Toro Rosso Synergies initiative and has over two decades of F1 experience under his belt.

Carter began his F1 career at Arrows before moving to McLaren in 2002, working on the structure and design of the car. Since 2015, he has held the role of head of composite design at Renault.
Williams also declared that Adam Carter has moved to the role of chief engineer.
"Dave and Jonathan bring enormous experience, knowledge and skills to the Williams team, and we are delighted that they are joining us in the near future," said Williams deputy team principal Claire Williams.
"They will strengthen our design capabilities and work closely with Adam Carter, our Chief Engineer, and the other senior members of the Engineering team on the design and development of the next generation of Williams F1 cars.”
Williams endured a difficult 2019 season, as it ended the championship at the bottom of the standings with one point to its name.
For the 2020 campaign, it has recruited rookie Nicholas Latifi alongside George Russell, who enters his second year in F1.
