ROME, June 26 - An Italian prosecutor has asked  for Formula
One team owner Frank Williams to be tried for alleged manslaighter
over the death of world  champion  driver  Ayrton Senna, a source
close to the investigation said today.
    The source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said public
prosecutor Maurizio Passarini was also seeking trial on the  same
charge  for  technical manager Patrick Head, six  other  Williams
team  officials and two senior officials of the Imola race  track
where Senna was killed during the San Marino Grand Prix in 1994.
     Passarini,  who  is based in the central  city  of  Bologna,
submitted his conclusions to an examining magistrate who must now
decide whether to bring formal charges and order a trial.
     The request was expected to be considered around July 20.
     The charge, if allowed to proceed, carries a maximum  prison.
     Five   people   were   investigated   in   connection   with 
Roland Ratzenberger's death but Italian media said Passarini had  
recommended that their cases be dropped.
