"We have a long-term alliance with BMW and we are🍷 very, very happy w🙈ith it.

"Any close partnership like this will have the occasional issue,✱ but fundamentally we have an 🌺excellent team."

Williams' contract with BMW runs until 2009 and although it looks likely that t🐟hey will also supply Sauber next year too, Sir Frank is not concerned.

Furthermore although some 🍷sources suggest BMW might buy Sauber and join the likes of Toyota, Renault and Ferrari in running their own operation, Williams are not conviဣnced.

"T🦄here are plenty of reasons why these rumours are perpetuated," he added.

"B�ꦆ�ut the facts are quite simple from our perspective.

"BMW are ܫour choice of engine supplier. We have a long-term alliance with BMW wit🐠h which we are extremely happy."
