Honestly I like this better than the chrome McLaren livery

i’m sure some people like the chrome but i never liked it as a design, however i think it’s still cool to bring it back for special occasions. and with a lot of liveries seeing them in track is way different than the photos so we’ll have to see this weekend!

I think I'd like the chrome better if it was cleaner and more minimalist but with all the sponsors all over it just looks cheap imo

yeah for sure.. the mclaren way these days.

That kind of highlights the sad reason why the Williams has been such a gorgeous car for the past few seasons: they don't have all the sponsors that McLaren and others have. It's sad to see Williams as a perineal backmarker given their history.

The Williams blue looks so good.

It does! I think it pairs with white better than Alpha Tauri.

Williams killing it on their Livery again. The last few years have been great, outside of that god awful white/blue/orange they had a couple years ago.

This is perfect though. Keeps their main livery intact while adding a loud, but fitting detail. Not like mclaren and that awful livery they’ve had the last 2 years. The last good special livery there was the gulf one. Everything since has just been an eyesore.

Ooh yes that's nice! They should run with it all year, I find the all-blue a little plain.
