Williams FW42 speculation thread

A place to discuss the characteristics of the cars in Formula One, both current as well as historical. Laptimes, driver worshipping and team chatter do not belong here.

Not much new here but Sofina logo on nose is interesting - Latifi’s father’s company apparently

Sort of ! but it is unlikely that there will be the Martini flash as they are pulling out. More likely this was shown just as an show piece for where ads might appear. In other words...publicity mule only.

Not sure, but I think the blue-blue stripes might be considered Williams branding now, rather than a hangover from the Martini deal. The light rebrand to ‘Williams Racing’ has included a version of the stripes. My guess is that the livery we see will be similar unless a new title sponsor is announced in the next few weeks.

No Oris on the nose, though. That surprises me a little as they’ve stuck with Williams through some pretty bad times, and right at the end of the 2018 season they released a Ltd Ed Robert Kubica watch. No watch partner this year?

Sidepods very similar to the RB14 I think.

I think it looks similar to last year.what williams had.

Someone played in PS and posted on reddit. It seems that they will have S duct(as last year obviously) and McLaren style nose with slits
