Williams reveals new special livery for the British Grand Prix

James Vowles, the team principal of the Williams F1 team said: "We are proud to be flying the flag for the British GP this week. From our first win to our 100th, Silverstone has played host to some of Atlassian Williams F1 Team’s most iconic moments – and there is nothing on the F1 calendar quite like the atmosphere of the home crowd here.

Williams experienced a difficult weekend in Austria. Sainz suffered a DNF, while Albon finished 17th after both drivers were eliminated in Q1 on Saturday.

So far this season, Sainz has finished ninth three times in China, Miami and Canada. Albon scored his first point in Miami before finishing eighth at the Monaco Grand Prix. As a result, the Grove-based team currently sits eighth in the constructors’ standings with 11 points collected across the opening eight rounds of the 2026 season.

Asked about his future, the Spaniard said to GPblog, among others, during the Austrian Grand Prix: "Seriously, I'm not because I have so much work to do here at Williams right now. Over the next few races, and the amount of simulator sessions we're doing, the amount of meetings that have been held in the last few months.
