This, folks, is the new Williams FW46 to be driven by the returning line-up of Alex Albon and Logan Sargeant.
Revealed in New York (American driver, American fanbase right?) the livery is predominantly blue; a nod to the team’s racing heritage which includes nine constructor's championships, seven driver’s titles, and 114 wins. There’s a red n’ white pinstripe to reflect Williams’ British roots, too.

“Coming off the back of a very positive year we’re hoping to build on our progress into 2024, working hard to make some good steps forward in performance," said Alex Albon. "We’ve asked a lot of the team and the factory to get this car where it needs to be, and we’ve also slightly changed the philosophy of the car, so I’m interested to see if we can improve some of the characteristics it has historically had. It will require an adjustment in driving style but I’m confident it will be a change for the better.”
Meanwhile, team principal James Vowels said: “Since joining Williams Racing a year ago, I’ve seen this team pull together to overcome a number of challenges and claim seventh in the Constructors’ Championship, which meant a great deal for everyone involved. We’ve also shown the world that we’re building the foundations for moving forward.
“Of course, there’s still a long way to go on this journey together but I know our fans, partners, and everyone at Grove HQ is pushing as one to create new history for this iconic team.”
