Williams hails ?night and day? progress

Williams has produced a car that is a 'night and day' improvement over its 2011 challenger, according its top engineer Mark Gillan. Pastor Maldonado threw away sixth place in the Australian Grand Prix last weekend with a crash on the final lap, having driven strongly throughout the race and put Fernando Alonso's Ferrari under late pressure. But although the end result was a disappointment for Williams, especially as it would have delivered the team more points than it scored throughout the whole of 2011, chief operations engineer Gillan believes there are still reasons to be happy.
