The Williams FW14B is a Driver’s and Constructor’s Championship winning Formula One car raced by the Williams team in the 1992 season. The car was designed by Adrian Newey  using a semi-automatic transmission, active suspension, traction control and, for a brief period, anti-lock brakes. Powered by a 3.5-litre V10 Renault engine with its design and development led by Bernard Dudot, the car is considered one of the most technologically sophisticated to have competed in F1. The FW14B was so successful that its successor (the FW15), which was available mid-season in 1992, was never used. Nigel Mansell wrapped up the 1992 Drivers' Championship with a then-record 9 wins in a season, Patrese scored a further win at the Japanese Grand Prix. There were many races in the 1992 season where Mansell and Patrese would gain 2 seconds per lap on the rest of the field, especially in the early laps. The season ended in acrimony as Mansell left the team after Alain Prost was signed, while Patrese moved to Benetton for his swansong season in 1993.
