This could be the classic livery Karun Chandhok was tweeting about?

PDVSA paid $50 million a year and did not get a livery theme, what make Martin special? unless Williams is into some retro thing.

Fair questions! I do not have the answers :). I heard the deal with Martini is 10 mil. / year (I could not find if it is USD, pound or euro) for 5 years. But Williams has a performance clause: if they have a decent season the money they get could go much higher.

One more thing: may be Bernie helped Williams with this Martini deal :)

If I see a Martini Racing livery in F1 during my life I will probably piss my pants from the emotion as it happened when I saw Lotus' black & gold one in 2011.

hmmm anybody know the significance between number 77 on the 1976 brabham F1 car and a possible link
with our finnish friend Bottas taking number 77? or am i taking too much here and it's simply because of bo77as?

i know Rolf Stommelen was the driver carrying number 77 but i don't see any connection there. perhaps just coincidence
it's a martini livery ona f1 car with number 77 like bottas will this year.

What is the regulation regarding alcohol sponsors in F1? And what will they do when racing in muslim countries?

Force India had a small alcohol sponsor that they had to cover up when they went o certain venues, they just taped over the logos on the uniforms and resprayed the car for that race. Don't know what they would do with a title sponsor that would have its logos everywhere on the car and in the team.
