Fans were given a choice of six different liveries, with the winning design set to appear on the FW48 when it runs on track for the first time during pre-season testing next month in Barcelona from January 26 to 30.

The livery called ‘Flow State’ came out on top, winning almost a third of all votes. The name refers to the intense mental focus drivers need to extract every last bit of performance from the car.

The design features Williams’ familiar navy blue lines on a clean white background. According to the team, it reflects the huge amount of work and development that has gone into preparing for the new 2026 regulations. In total, 54,718 votes were cast by fans from 162 countries, underlining the strong global support for the team.

The result was announced by Williams drivers Alex Albon and Carlos Sainz. Williams will be hoping the new look marks another step forward on track, after finishing fifth in the Constructors’ Championship in 2025 and clearly leading the midfield battle.
