A start of controversy seemed to emerge in the world of Formula 1. Comments reported in various media indicated criticism from Williams relating to the acceptance of engines Mercedes, whose components would be different from the versions used by the official team. Claire Williams reacted on the Twitter account of the eponymous team.
“Contrary to recent media comments, we reject suspicions regarding possible parity of power packages supplied by Mercedes-AMG (to its client teams Force India and Williams). We are absolutely convinced that these engine blocks are in every way identical to those used by Mercedes, both in terms of software and hardware. We have built an excellent professional relationship with Mercedes and our aim is to continue this work. »
Following the recent discussion on engine parity, we thought we'd get the down low from Claire earlier today:
“Contrary to comments made recently in the press, we reject any suggestion that we have questioned the parity of the power units provided by Mercedes-AMG HPP. (1/3)

Mercedes-AMG F1 immediately recalled on its Twitter account that its troops were working to provide the same engine to the six single-seaters equipped (the two W09s, plus the two Williams FW41s and the two Force India WJM11s).
What Claire said Hundreds of committed people at Mercedes-AMG HPP put thousands of hours of dedication into providing equal power units across six cars #mbFamily https://t.co/iOHWiwOzjx
