Despite a tough start to the 2019 Formula 1 world championship with new title sponsors ROKiT, hꦦaving missed the opening two days of pre-season testing, Williams has announced a deal extension with the telecommunications company which could 🌞run to the end of the 2024.

“ROKiT joined the team at a challenging time and it means a great deal 💛to us that they believe i♑n our vision and are committed to helping us achieve it.

“I’ve𓄧 personally enjoyed working with the team at ROKiT and look forward to continuing this w🎐ork in the years ahead.”

“Our relationship with the Wil❀liams supports our position as a global player in the mobile phone industry, entertainment and drinks business,” Jonathan Kendrick, Chairman of ROKiT, said.

“We have exciting plans to produce exclusive ROKiT Williams Racing con🦄tent for our ROKiT phones, as well as strong distribution for ABK and Bogarts. I am also committed to helping the team get back onto the podium, where they should bꦛe.”
