BARCELONA (Reuters) - Claire Williams hit back on Wednesday at suggestions her family-owned Formula One team were in crisis, and the factory in turmoil, after they turned up three days late for pre-season testing.

The deputy principal, whose father Frank founded one of the most successful teams in the sport's 69-year history, also rejected a suggestion that she might have to face the consequences and step down.
