What is it with the certain sections of the media and the WilliamsF1 team's driver line-up for 2005?
For some time the Grove outfit has made it clear that it will announce its full driver line-up when the FW27 is unveiled at Valencia on January 31.
Beforehand the team will unveil its 2005 livery at a special press conference to be held at the Bahrain International Circuit on January 7.
On December 22, Pitpass revealed that WilliamsF1 is to host a press conference in London on January 6, and it's widely thought that this will be to confirm a major sponsorship deal with the Royal Bank of Scotland.
The team, in numerous communications with Pitpass, has made it quite clear that no driver announcements will be made in London or Bahrain, and that the evaluation of both Antonio Pizzonia and Nick Heidfeld will continue throughout January.
There will be no driver announcements this week or next.
