For 2009 Williams stuck with the pairing of Kazuki Nakajima and Nico Rosberg. In terms of points this proves to be a fairly inequitable partnerships with Rosberg contributing all the points.

This was the year of the “double diffuser” the aerodynamic device put to such great use by Brawn GP to power them to the title. Unfortunately, it wasn’t as effective on the Williams leaving them 7th in the championship at the end of the year.

Toto Wolff takes an investment in Williams and joins the board of directors.

In October the Williams Technology Centre in Qatar was opened.
