Williams FW32
Cosworth-powered Williams on which Nico Hülkenberg took a surprise pole position at Interlagos in 2010.
About the Williams FW32
Williams built the FW32 for 2010 around Cosworth's new CA2010 V8, with Rubens Barrichello and GP2 champion Nico Hülkenberg as its drivers. Barrichello's best result was fourth at Valencia, where he passed Ayrton Senna's career points total to become the highest-scoring Brazilian driver. In a drying qualifying session in Brazil, Hülkenberg's switch to slick tyres earned pole by 1.049 seconds, Williams' first pole since 2005 and Cosworth's first since 1999. The team finished sixth in the Constructors' Championship with 69 points, one ahead of Force India.
