Williams have succeeded where they failed last season in unveiling their 2020 car ahead of pre-season testing. How does their brand new FW43 compare to the car that saw them score only one point last season?

A fresh start

2020 is a fresh start for Williams after the nightmare of 2019 and it starts with a new colour scheme. Last season's livery was compared to a tube of toothpaste but this season sees a new splash of red on the side and on the rear wing.

ABK Beer is a prominent sponsor on the side of the car alongside the Rokit logo. Lavazza is also another recognisable brand but there's no PKn Orlen following Robert Kubica's departure.
