Williams deputy team principal Claire Williams is prepping for a new arrival next October as Claire and her husband Mark expect their first child, a baby boy.

The couple made the announcement via Williams' Twitter account.

With Mercedes boss Toto Wolff and his wife Suzie also expecting their first child in the coming days, perhaps Liberty Media should set up a nursery within the F1 paddock!

F1i joins in on the congratulations and wishes Claire and Mark a trouble-free childbirth to Williams' next team principal!
