History

Williams Esports was founded in May 2018 and was the first Formula One team to launch its own Esports team.

Javier Guerra -- the founder of JIM Racing -- a Spanish sim racing team founded in 2011 -- is responsible for Team Ops. Steven English is Williams' Head of Esports

.

"Esports has grown dramatically in recent years to become a huge global industry, so we're eager to take on the challenge of growing sim racing's place in the Esports world, Guerra said in 2018. "We're looking forward to developing our roster of drivers, offering a select number the incredible chance to become part of the Williams family."
