BBC News - Sir Frank Williams: Formula 1 team founder dies aged 79

Growing up, I can't say I liked him. But hearing others talk about recently has made me view him in a different way.

Take a look from 5 minutes on in this video with Jason Plato and Jonny as an example.

Motorsport in the UK would have been very different without him.

I was extremely fortunate to work for this wonderful man for six years between 2001 and 2007. He was a fabulous boss, who made it his priority to know everyone's Christian name and a bit about all their families. At that time there was over 500 people employed at the factory!  Once you worked for him, you became part of his extended family. A very sad loss.
