Its like a fashionable suit on a car, very sophisticated, very sezy, but it would look better if I was in it.

It's dark blue I think. IMO prettiest car of 2008. Shame about the .com's and .co.uk's in the logos though.

... and the "Budweiser" spot on the airbox is still empty. But what a difference from the blank sidepods of 2006!

Yep, that doesn't

seem like it's been thought all the way through. I mean, any self respecting business will have a web address consisting of <their name>.com ... and if not, they've made sure that the site isn't any further than a "Googling" away. But that's just me, growing tired of seeing good ink wasted on printing ".com", ".co.uk", ".net" just about everywhere. Well, RFIDding will eventually take care of that, creating an "internet of things".

I really like it, reminds me a little of the FW22, only with more of a bias towards the dark blue and less white.

I think it looks crisp, clean, and pretty cool. If James Bond had an F1, this might be it. lol. (Lets just hope it goes as well as it looks) [-o<

Definately a good looking livery, and I especially like the side and rear views. Even though I think that painting the entire engine cover area up to the airbox blue would be an improvement, as the wavy transtition into a pure white airbox area doesn't look quite right to me :? .

And all those advertisements make it seem like a city bus to me, just full of words and websites for people to see. It doesn't seem that well thought out, as most of the time sponsors have their logos that identify them, and not the actual names and websites (as Williams now have).

They definately had a good thing going with the all-blue winter testing livery thats for sure.

I Hope they're able to improve on their 4th place in the CC from last season, which makes it quite a difficult task if you ask me.

I was thinking the same thing actually.

I agree though - colour schemes look so different on TV.. usually about 20 shades darker - especially from above.

Not my favourite but I think its better than most in the grid.
I think its bark blue, but you can confuse with black.

Black would be good, I like Black (remember 1998 Arrows?)

Good loking car definitely. The livery is just as pretty as the shape. The only thing I'd change is paint the bridge wing in dark blue so that the nose would look more 'streamlined', oh yea, and that MYBLABLABLA.COM sponsor on the back of the rear wing doesn't look good.

Anyway I think it's the best racing livery of Williams over the last 10 yaers.
