Williams unveil 'one-off' special livery for home British Grand Prix

Alex Albon and Carlos Sainz will be sporting the special livery at Silverstone for the British Grand Prix.

Williams has unveiled the Union Jack-themed livery it will run for its home British Grand Prix this weekend. 

The usual FW47 livery will sport "flashes of red, white, and blue" across the nose cone and front of the chassis at the circuit where Williams claimed its first F1 victory in 1979, through Clay Regazzoni. 

The team kit will also feature the British flag design, with the team preparing a series of events in the build-up to its home race, including a 'road show' around the UK, including in Manchester, Edinburgh, Cardiff, and London. 

"We are proud to be flying the flag for the British GP this week," said team boss James Vowles.

"From our first win to our 100th, Silverstone has played host to some of Williams F1 Team’s most iconic moments – and there is nothing on the F1 calendar quite like the atmosphere of the home crowd here. 

"Whether watching in the grandstands, supporting at the Fan Zone or cheering us on from home, we really feel the energy of the fans and will be carrying it with us all weekend."
