Williams have unveiled their new livery for the 2024 Formula One season at a launch event in New York on Monday.

The new car will feature a deep blue design which, according to the team, "links Williams’ championship-winning heritage with its mission to return to the front of the grid."

Williams, who finished last season in seventh, took the opportunity to announce a new multi-year headline partnership with Komatsu, who are a leading manufacturer of construction, mining, forestry and industrial heavy equipment.

The two parties enjoyed a successful partnership in the 1980s and 1990s, when Williams won a host of races and championships.

"It will take time, but everyone’s support is integral to help drive us towards success in the years to come. I’m looking forward to seeing what this season holds for us," team principal James Vowles said.

Williams also presented new overalls for drivers Alex Albon and Longa Sargeant, who will now wear all-white.

Their new car, the FW46, will make its track debut at a promotional filming day on February 20 in Bahrain, where the F1 season kicks-off on March 2.
