Williams are the latest Formula 1 team to confirm a livery reveal date for their 2026 challenger.
Coming swiftly after Mercedes’ own announcement, Williams have announced that the “striking” new livery for the FW48 will be unveiled on Tuesday, February 3.
That falls between F1’s private pre-season test in Barcelona from January 26-30 and two subsequent sessions in Bahrain from February 11-13 and February 18-20.
Williams will be looking to build on a much-improved P5 classification in the Teams’ Championship – their best since 2017 – as the sport enters an all-new era of regulations this year.
Carlos Sainz, who arrived in 2025 and scored two Grand Prix podiums, remains alongside long-time Williams Alex Albon, with James Vowles continuing to lead the squad’s resurgence as Team Principal.
Most F1 teams have now confirmed their pre-season launch plans, meaning a busy couple of months are in store before the 2026 campaign officially gets under way with the Australian Grand Prix from March 6-8.
