Honestly I like this better than the chrome McLaren livery

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

iโ€™m sure some people like the chrome but i never liked it as a design, however i think itโ€™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 weโ€™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

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

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.

absolutely gorgeous. what a classy special livery.

The Williams blue looks so good.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Agreed, but the red definitely detracts from what would otherwise be a great-looking livery on the 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 theyโ€™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.
