Bladesman   10 #1 Posted January 17, 2012 Brazilian Bruno Senna has signed to drive for Williams in 2012. The move means the 28-year-old is joining the team for which his uncle Ayrton Senna was driving when he was killed in 1994.  He was preferred to veteran countryman Rubens Barrichello for the position and will partner Venezuelan Pastor Maldonado.  Senna impressed sporadically after being drafted in by the Renault team in the final races of last season.  His only other experience of F1 is spending the 2010 season with the struggling HRT team.  "I feel very privileged Williams has selected me as one of their race drivers," said Senna, who will make his debut for Williams in Jerez, Spain on 9 February in the first of the team's winter tests.  "The team has a great heritage and I hope I can help write a good chapter in their history.  http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/formula_one/16587505.stm  Should do well for Williams I reckon.  Although not sure he will reach the heights that Aryton did more down to the state Williams are in these days.
