Among the various options put forward in a poll that saw 54,718 votes cast from 162 different countries, the winning choice was the “Flow State” livery, featuring a striking contrast between blue and white in a recurring pattern across the entire chassis.

Fans were given the choice of six different liveries, with the Flow State design securing almost a third of the votes.

“Each design retained shades of Williams’ signature blue with three of those including the recently revealed team logo,” it reads on Williams website. “A modern interpretation of the ‘Forward W’ pioneered by founder Sir Frank Williams, the original logo featured on all nine of the team’s Constructors’ Championship-winning cars.”

As for the specific ‘Flow State’ design, Williams described it as “A striking design that celebrates the speed and science of the world’s most technologically-advanced sport, swirling Williams Navy Blue speed lines adorn a pure white background, evoking the hundreds of hours of aerodynamic testing that have gone into developing the team’s all-new car.”

Williams Team Principal James Vowles said: “Thank you to all our incredible Atlassian Williams Racing fans around the world who had their say on how we should enter this new era for Formula 1.

“Flow State is a worthy winner and we are excited to carry the fans together with us when we hit the track for the first time. There is a lot to look forward to in 2026 and this is just the start.”

The British outfit is one of the few teams yet to announce the launch date of its 2026 car, the only one to do so alongside McLaren and Mercedes at the time of writing.

All eight other teams have already confirmed both the date and location of their launches, with Red Bull and Racing Bulls the first to reveal their car launch plans and Ferrari the most recent to join the list.
