Williams F1 team parts company with engineering director
Carter had been with the Grove-based te🥂am since 2016 and effectively took over control of the technical department following the departure of Paddy Lowe at the start of the 2019 season.
A short statement ♔issued on Friday by Williams team principal Capi♌to confirmed his exit.
“As we look ahead at our engineering strategy and requirements for the next year and beyond, we have made changes in our engineerඣing structure,” said Capito.
“Adam Carter has left the team and I would 💞like to thank him for his hard work and contribution over the last ♐six years.”
It marks the latest ch🧔ange of personnel at Williams since the team’s sale to Dorilton Capital𓃲 in September 2020.
Capito arrived as CEO during the following winter before moving into the team principal role when Simon Roberts left mid-way 🦋through last season.
The German recruited former Volkswagen colleague Francois-Xavier Demaison as technical chief aജt the s♕tart of 2021, while former design boss Doug McKiernan left his role as part of the restructure.
In November last year, Capito hired ex-VW motorsport boss Sven Smeet🌠s to become the team’s new sporting director.
