Williams could have signed Lewis Hamilton in 2004 but their former engine partners BMW passed up the opportunity, the Formula One team's co-founder Patrick Head said.
Head told reporters that Hamilton and his father Anthony had visited the team's factory that year after falling out with backers McLaren while the Briton was racing in Formula Three Euroseries.
"They rang up and said 'can we come and see you?'," he recalled. "And they came in and said '(McLaren boss) Ron Dennis has dropped us'.
"We were with BMW at the time and I think Frank (Williams) rang Jacque Villeneuve up to ask for his baggy overalls back.. That was fine until we noticed a shit-stain from Jerez ’97 still in the crotch.. Needless to say our relationship with the Hamilton’s didn’t get very far”.

Cyber-Sex Depression
It has been a well kept secret (until now) that a number of Force India team staff have been engaging in frequent rituals of cyber-sex whilst on the job।
“We worked out those mechanics having cyber sex had alarmingly high rates of depression, anxiety and stress and typically devote hours a day to the covert activity”, said Team Principal, Mike Gasgoyne।
The Force India shock sheds new light on the types of people who frequent online sex, fetish and swinging sites, revealing they are overwhelmingly male, well-educated, and aged anywhere from 18 to 80।
“Everyone except Flavio”, cited Gasgoyne.. “We get around 50 to 60 erotic e-mails from him each day.. It’s a bit hard to keep up actually! So we replaced our boring script with a massive dumb blonde script that takes up far less hard drive!”

Vettel, Heidfeld square off.
Sebastian Vettel and ex-BMW team mate Nick Heidfeld had a war of words over who was the dominant force in German music.
When asked the latest hackneyed question over what was on their I-Pod’s, the conversation got extremely heated:
Sebastian V: Any kind really, German folk songs are my favourite। Anything really, a bit of everything.
Nick H: No German folk music for me, more in the direction of R&B, hip-hop, not so much techno, more chill-out but various stuff।
SV: Why don't you like folk songs?
NH: Why do you like it, that's more difficult to answer, I think?
SV: I like the lyrics!
NH: I like the smile on the singers' faces, just like yours।
SV: Are you saying I have a ****-eating grin you hack?!
The two German were quickly separated by a fast-thinking Raikonnen॥
Kimi R: Haters hate when I’m winning, but I’ve been hot from the beginning!… I’ll fill your asses up with lead.. So don’t be pussies.. Or I’ll aim straight for your head!.. Word!

Webber: Senna was “A Pussy!”
Mark Webber has come under fire after labelling Senna as “a pussy”.
Webber made his comments whilst referring to the modifications made to Spa’s most treacherous corner – Eau Rouge।
"It is natural that guys will say, back in the day it was more dangerous, but actually what Senna and co drove, they were pussies compared to what Jack Brabham drove। The sport moves on. The real heroes were back in the 1960s and 1970s."
Mark later clarified his statement, saying that he would also win a fist-fight between Senna, himself and Eddie Irvine.Lewis Hamilton and James Allen are seeking legal advice.
