Three big crashes, two damaged chassis and no spare car equals a brutal cost for an F One team suffering a shocking streak of accidents.

This is well beyond the worst outcome Williams would have expected for the start of the year, even though it knowingly took a big gamble ahead of the new season.

The team only had two chassis ready for the opening races and both of them have now been damaged across two crashes for Alex Albon,

while teammate Logan Sargent heavily shunted the first one that had to be repaired.

If you've seen our video explaining just how bad Williams' winter was, you will have a good idea of why it started this year so vulnerable.

If you've not seen that video, check it out here, because then his tale of woe will make a lot more sense.

The key details you need to know is that Williams ended up well behind schedule due to a combination of outdated processes and systems, limited facilities, and a big change in the composition and management of its car build.

Essentially there was a lot more work to do and far more hassle with a lot of the same infrastructure restrictions.

Something had to give.

Williams needed to sacrifice spare parts, performance updates,

or the backup chassis for its pre season focus.

It chose to go ahead with only two chassis, hoping it could deal with any damage on site, with F One's ultra competitive midfield demanding more of a performance focus.

It was sub optimal, but not unprecedented, and Williams isn't actually alone.

Fellow Crysis team Alpine has navigated the opening events without a spare chassis.

so it was survivable.

But all it needed was one big shunt in the first few races to cause a big problem.

And Williams had three.

Albon had two of them, although he can only really take responsibility for one of them, having smashed his car into the wall in practice in Australia.

He took over Sargent's car for the remainder of that event, while his own was sent back to the UK for repairs, a process that delayed the preparation of the spare chassis even further.

So Williams still only had two chassis in Japan, where it suffered two more heavy crashes.

Sargent, now driving Albon's patched up chassis, shunted in Friday practice, but the damage was limited to bodywork, suspension components and the gearbox.

Then three corners into Sunday's Grand Prix, Albon found himself helplessly careering into the wall after being turned into blindly by Daniel Ricciardo.

That impact was not at super high speed, but the structure of the barrier there meant that the car came to quite a sudden and violent stop.

The energy put through the car has caused enough damage that once again Williams has had to send back a race chassis to the UK for inspection and repairs before the next race in China.

One of the factors that has made this so costly is where the crashes have taken place, because the F One calendar has not been kind in this scenario.

After the opening two races in the Middle East came a new calendar leg designed to cut down freight costs and emissions by grouping the races in Australia, Japan and China two weeks apart.

Having crashes in Australia and Japan that was so big that the chassis needed to return to base for repairs both times is the absolute worst case scenario.

It hugely increases the time and money involved in moving the cars back and forth between races and the factory in Grove.

The process is not quick anyway, a detailed assessment needs to happen trackside first, checking things like suspension alignment, but also looking for energy overloads in the data that might indicate problem areas.

with techniques like coloured liquid application and ultrasound to reveal the extent of cracks and damage.

This does aid in determining the repair strategy and saves time once the car is back at base, but it needs to get there.

And as Team Principal James Vowles put it, the worst place you could have a crash in this situation is in Australia, and the second worst place you could be racing next is Japan.

Cargo space and custom details need to be sorted as well, even before you factor in that it takes more than a day to transport the car back from Australia.

At least there the crash happened earlier in the weekend.

That bought some vital time, meaning Williams received it at around two a.m.

on the Monday afterwards.

The return journey from Japan slightly less arduous, but this time the crash happened in the race, so the chassis was not released until Sunday evening.

That put both repair jobs on a similar tight turnaround before the parts could be shipped to Asia.

The chassis needs any punctures to be reinforced with patches, to undergo checks in a jig back at base for alignment, and be painted before shipment.

In addition to being time sensitive from start to finish, Albon's Australia crash specifically added an extra burden on Williams personnel that could easily be overlooked.

The weekend between the two races was a bank holiday in England, which meant asking the factory team to work several days extra to get the job done in time.

That might sound trivial, but this is a team that had already gone through a brutal winter workload, so imagine how many personal or family plans went up in smoke.

And there'll be plenty of people at Grove working unhappy shifts between now and China to manage the second repair too.

As Albon put it, Williams has been relying on staff digging deep and producing miracles, and that's going to have to continue for a little longer.

Unsurprisingly, the cost is enormous.

The repairs, the replacement floors, wings, and suspension components, at least two new gearboxes, the unexpected need to transport the chassis, it all adds up.

The situation was so precarious even before Sunday's Japanese Grand Prix that Albon claims during the crash, he was consciously thinking about how bad it would be for Williams while he was still heading for the wall.

We understand this will end up costing Williams over two million dollars across the three accidents.

and it's likely going to be closer to three million once the full extent of Albon Suzuka crash is understood.

Williams is no longer in the financial grave it was in a few years ago, but while owner Darleton has bottomless pockets compared to the previous Williams era, F One's a budget capped world now.

and all of these costs will come out of that allowance.

Every team does build a crash allowance into its budget cap projections for the season, but we think Williams is going to be pushing up close to that limit, if not past it already.

That means, more likely than not, Williams' development budget will take a hit this season at some point.

It's problematic given Williams is already behind the curve this year thanks to winter problems which meant some development items that should have been there for the launch spec still aren't on the car now.

That work is going to either be paused or diluted for the second time in a couple of weeks because the focus at the factory will have to be on the repairs.

Keep in mind also that Albon was running some updates in Japan

including a new spec front wing, which presumably was set to be on Sargent's car in China.

It's possible that that might not be the case if Williams cannot produce enough parts to cover both cars with spares.

And we know that the spare chassis is still not in circulation and has now been delayed once again.

It was originally meant to be ready for race one in Bahrain, which became race three in Australia, then race five in China, and now race six in Miami, assuming no more unexpected setbacks.

The outcome of all of this is that in both the short and long term, these crashes have a tangible impact on Williams' bid to add performance to a car that clearly needs it.

While there shouldn't have been an obvious negative talking point for all the drama they've caused off track, the picture elsewhere on track doesn't look particularly good either.

As we mentioned, the car was not as well developed as Williams would have liked for Race One, and since then it's not bought all the updates it would have wanted to because of the crash chaos.

But the car is an improvement on last year's straight line speed merchant.

It's got better cornering performance and a better entry characteristic than before, and it is more well rounded.

The trade off has had some negatives, though.

There's now a balance problem further through the corner, which causes some issues on traction.

The car's also slower on the straights now, as it has more downforce and drag.

That's left Williams struggling to be anything more than in the middle of the second block of five teams.

Its qualifying performance has been unspectacular, leaving it eighth fastest after four races, and its race pace has been lacking when it looks weaker than everybody except Alpine and slightly too hard on its tyres.

That's why it's struggled to make an impact in the races so far.

The car performance characteristics have meant no repeat of the past Albon tactic of overachieving in qualifying and then brilliantly hanging on at the head of a train of cars.

He has overachieved to a degree, putting Williams as high as the seventh fastest team twice in four attempts.

But even that leaves him outside the top ten, and the fact that that's yet to translate into a points finish shows which way his races have gone from there.

Essentially, the Williams is now a much steadier midfield car than it was last year,

But it is lacking the peaks that allowed it to snipe the points last year, and those points are now going to Arby and Haas.

Albon's even described Haas as the new Williams, as its low downforce, low drag car has been a nightmare to pass on the straights.

It all comes back to needing to quickly improve the limited launch spec car,

an effort that is routinely being compromised.

Williams has shown good resilience through the deluge of setbacks, and while there has been plenty of criticism and even mockery of the team for finding itself in this position, it deserves some credit for pushing through the pain, and there's been a lot to push through.

It's possible that there's still more pain to come, though you would hope it's through the worst of it, for everybody's sake.

The likes of Valls and Aubon knew when they joined that there would be difficult moments, and times when Williams would need to take one step back to take two forwards.
