Williams debut 'real' 2022 car in Silverstone shakedown

Williams' new F1 car has taken to the track following an online reveal of the team's 2022 livery earlier on Tuesday.

Williams have debuted their new F1 car during a shakedown in wet conditions at the Silverstone Circuit. Williams presented the FW44 to the world in an online presentation on Tuesday but it quickly became clear that the digital renders supplied essentially featured a show car with the team's new-look livery for the 2022 season. However, later in the day, the team hit the track with their 'real' car and subsequently released a couple of photographs of Nicholas Latifi at the wheel. Every F1 team is given two 'filming days' a year, with many opting to use the first of these as a means to shake down their cars before the crucial pre-season tests, which begin in Barcelona next week .
