iWitness in Spain: Saturday

Posted on Saturday 09 May 2009 and tagged with iwitness, spain, barcelona.

A cloudy morning in Barcelona, but still the sunglasses were out in force at AT&T Williams. Three of our key account managers – Helen, Emma and Millie – were late to bed last night (are you sure they got to bed? Ed), having attended two different parties in Barcelona. First they attended the ‘photographers’ night’ on the Stad Amsterdam clipper, owned by team partner Randstad, before continuing their evening at Amber Lounge. Party on, girls!

Nico’s entry into Q3 this afternoon resulted in a first appearance of the Hells Angels. AT&T Williams’ two refuellers are dressed in bright red overalls in deference to our new sponsor, Hell Energy Drink. Unfortunately, leather jackets and cowboy boots aren’t allowed in the pitlane.

AT&T Williams test driver Nico Hulkenberg was back in action this afternoon. The Hulk was driving in the first GP2 Series race of the year, in which he finished ninth. A solid start to the year, Nico, and good luck in tomorrow’s second race.

Could a robot drive the Brawn GP001, winner of three races already this year? It’s a tantalising thought as the robot from the movie Terminator Salvation stands at the back of the Brawn garage this weekend. Over to you Jenson!
