Williams has appointed Dan Milner as chief engineer of vehicle technology to oversee the team’s car development programmes, joining after 14 years at Mercedes Formula 1 and leaving Mercedes earlier this year.
At Mercedes, Milner served most recently as chief engineer of research and development and previously led power unit–chassis integration, headed the transmission design department and worked as lead powertrain engineer.
Milner had been on gardening leave since January and will work under Matt Harman, Williams technical director, and Pat Fry, chief technical officer; Milner said he was “thrilled” to be joining Williams.
Milner’s background also includes roles at Brackley during the Brawn and Honda eras and senior design work on the America’s Cup with the Ineos Britannia team.
