Walter Wolf (industrialist)
Walter Wolf is an Slovenian-born Canadian oil-drilling equipment supplier who in the early 1970s made a fortune from the North Sea oil business and decided to join the world of Formula 1 (F1) motor racing. At first his funds helped prop up Frank Williams' fledgling F1 team before Williams left in 1977 to form a new team ("Williams Grand Prix Engineering", which went on to become the highly-successful WilliamsF1 team).
