Williams will unveil the livery of its 2026 F1 car, the FW48, on February 3, with the Grove-based team claiming it will be a "striking look".
The nine-time constructors' champion has already shared the special livery that Alex Albon and Carlos Sainz will run during the private test at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya.
The latest livery will adorn the car for the rest of the campaign, including the two official preseason tests in Bahrain.
The team heads into the 2026 season carried by a wave of optimism. It took a significant step forward last year, finishing fifth in the constructors' standings as team principal James Vowles' project to restore the fallen giant gathered momentum.
Sainz secured two podium finishes towards the end of the campaign, and if the Mercedes power unit is as strong as expected, Williams could be set to add more trips to the rostrum this year — as it did when the power unit regulations last changed in 2014.
