Williams wants more money for more races

Sir Frank Williams has backed Formula One`s expansion, but thinks Bernie Ecclestone should pay for the privilege of a longer calendar.


A raft of team bosses recently said they would agree to the F1 Chief Executive`s desire for 20 races a season.

“We support 20 (races) providing Bernie recognises it costs a lot more because of extra people and transporting equipment,” Williams said at Bahrain`s Sakhir circuit; his first appearance at a Grand Prix in 2008.
