Williams has played down reports it is in the market for a new engine supplier.<\/p>\n
The British team, as well as F1 newcomer Lotus and the French hopeful ART, have all been linked with a supply of Renault engines for 2011.<\/p>\n
It is rumoured that Williams is particularly unhappy with the performance degradation of Cosworth’s 2010 engine.<\/p>\n
But chief executive Adam Parr is quoted by motorsport-aktuell.com: “I am satisfied with them (Cosworth), we are not looking at other engines.”<\/p>\n
He added that Williams and Cosworth are working on how to maintain the performance of the engines as they accumulate more kilometres.<\/p>\n
“This is definitely something on which they are working and where they have already made progress,” confirmed technical director Sam Michael.<\/p>\n
However, the Renault package looked particularly strong in Monaco recently, where the Red Bulls as well as the works car of Robert Kubica dominated qualifying and the famous street race.<\/p>\n
“I think the Renault engine is very competitive,” Sir Frank Williams noted in the Principality.<\/p>\n
“It is a great engine, especially on this track,” he added.<\/p>\n
On the Grove based team’s current Cosworth units, Williams added: “We would always like more horse power, but it’s not a bad engine.”<\/p>\n
