And thanks for the memories and all the things you did for F1.

Just heard this news, very sad. Always hoped that his team would one day enjoy again a bit of the success they had in the '80s, but it wasn't to be.
I recorded this documentary to a VHS tape back in 1981 or so. Unfortunately my brother taped over it, but happily it turned up on YouTube a few years ago. Quite poignant to see Sir Frank out jogging.

What a lifetime of achievements in F1, thank you Mr Frank Williams. R.I.P.
What a sad day for motor racing. Built a great Formula One team against the odds. Will be missed by many.
Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.
RIP Sir Frank
Sad loss to Motorsport - one of the formative characters in F1's journey, RIP Sir Frank.
When you look long into an abyss, the abyss looks long into you.........
Sad to hear this news. I too hoped Williams would find themselves back at the front of the grid. RIP.

Terribly sad news. I hope that in selling the team, his family had more time to spend with him.
Legend RIP
What very sad news. He achieved so much before and after his terrible accident. What a tremendous life!

What a great man, and so influential despite , and maybe , because of, a terrible accident.
RIP Sir Frank, a true icon of the sport.

F1 will never have a team-maker like him again.
RIP, Sir.
A legend lost. RIP
A very sad loss to motorsport and a pioneering spirit. The last of the independent teams and a huge proponent for engineering in this country. Let’s not forget that as well as an incredibly successful F1 team, he founded Williams Advanced Engineering. RIP Sir Frank.
