Williams has revealed the livery for its new Formula 1 car.
The Grove-based team uncovered its new car at Silverstone last week in a one-off livery. They presented their race colour scheme at Formula 1’s pre-season launch today.
The car will be raced by Alexander Albon, now in his fourth year with the team, and Carlos Sainz Jnr, who has joined from Ferrari.
The new livery incorporates the logos and pale blue colour scheme of Williams’ new title sponsor Atlassian alongside the team’s traditional dark blue colouring. The team said its new livery also features “subtle white and blue detailing [which] pays homage to past liveries, ensuring a sense of continuity while introducing an evolved aesthetic.”
Another newcomer to the team which appears on the FW47 is Spanish bank Santander, whose logos previously appeared on Ferrari’s cars.
“Tonight was a truly special moment for Atlassian Williams Racing as we revealed the FW47 livery to the world at F1 75 Live,” said James Vowles, who is beginning his third year as team principal. “This car represents the dedication and hard work of every individual at HQ working tirelessly to get this team back where it deserves to be.”
Vowles also paid tribute to the team’s supporters. “Seeing the incredible support from our fans here, and around the world, reminds us why we do this — we’re on this journey together.”
Williams suffered a disappointing 2024 season as they fell two places to ninth in the constructors’ championship. However Sainz is encouraged by what he’s seen at the team since joining them at the end of last year. “We know we’re on a journey but every day we are making steps to help bring Williams back to where it belongs,” he said.
