BMW WilliamsF1 team boss, S💙ir Frank Williams has dismissed rumours that the Grove based team will split with BMW at the end of the season, by confirming they have a 'long term alliance'.

According to the F1 insiders, Wi🦹lliams have🍨 been in talks with Cosworth and Toyota for 2006, however while Sir Frank didn't deny that, his statement would seem to squash such speculation.

"It is well known that Williams never comments on contractual matters," Williams told Reuters.

"We have a long-term alliance with BMW and w♏e are very, very happy with it.

"Any close partnership🌳 like this will have the occasional issue, but fundamentally we have an excellent team."

Williams' contract with BMW runs until 2009 and although it looks likely that they will also supply Sauber next year too, Sir Frank is not con🔥cerned.

Furthermore although some sources suggest BMW might buy Sauber and join the likes✃ of Toyota, Renault and Ferrari in run♈ning their own operation, Williams are not convinced.

"Th♍ere are plenty of reasons why these rumours are perpetuated," he added.

"But the facts are quite simple from our persp🍨ective.

"BMW are our choice of engine s༺upplierꦯ. We have a long-term alliance with BMW with which we are extremely happy."

Whatever th꧑e reality though there is seldom 'smoke without fire'.
