Honestly I like this better than the chrome McLaren livery

[โ€“] humantorchbankloan@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years 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!

[โ€“] Determinator@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

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

yeah for sure.. the mclaren way these days.

[โ€“] d00phy@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

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.

[โ€“] PilotJones@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

absolutely gorgeous. what a classy special livery.

[โ€“] Kriptyc@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The Williams blue looks so good.

[โ€“] bhmnscmm@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

[โ€“] Enthrone@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Agreed, but the red definitely detracts from what would otherwise be a great-looking livery on the Alpha Tauri.

Ooh yes that's nice! They should run with it all year, I find the all-blue a little plain.

[โ€“] BURN@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

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.
