Earlier this week, Williams' veteran Alex Wurz announced about his retirement from Formula One with an immediate effect. This gives a perfect chance to a Williams' rookie Kazuki Nakajima, who will be making his Formula One debut in the next weekend's Brazilian Grand Prix at INTERLAGOS.

According to the Williams team, the purpose of giving Nakajima the drive is to allow him to develop his Formula One experience rather than to evaluate him for a seat in a 2008 season. As a result the 22-year-old driver will be approaching the opportunity somewhat relaxed.

Nakajima’s father, Satoru, has also made his Formula One debut in Brazil (but on a different track) 20 years ago. Satoru senior finished 7th, thus grabbing 2 points. Kazuki's plans are to repeat or even improve his father's result, but the young driver understands that the race will be extremely tough.
