LONDON (Reuters) - Frank Williams has no plans to retire from the Formula One team he founded in 1977 and is under no pressure to do so, his daughter Claire has said.

Now 73, Williams has been quadriplegic and in a wheelchair since a road accident in southern France in 1986. The Briton spent some time in hospital last year for treatment to a pressure sore.
