Gentlemen, Lift Your Skirts
The tiny Williams team from Didcot won every championship last year with their skirted racing cars. Now the Paris-based ruling body of the sport has banned the skirt and thrown this new technology into disarray. Horizon spent the winter with Williams and their World Champion driver Alan Jones. What is the essence of a modern racing car? How can they improve the performance for 1981 - with skirts lifted?
