Williams will be the last team to present their new car for 2021 this Friday. We have seen so far that most teams do this in a rather sober way. The car and the most important team members are physically present, but Alpine showed on Tuesday that in principle this is not necessary. Williams goes one step further.

They are going to launch their car with the help of "augmented reality". This means that fans will be able to download an app on their phones that will project the new car into their homes at full size. This way, everyone can see the new car up close.

Launching on Friday 5 March at 2pm

The 'Williams Racing AR Launch 2021' app is currently available in the Apple Store and will soon be available for Android users as well. On the day of the launch, you will get a notification at 14:00 that you can view the projection.

The unveiling will be followed by a virtual press conference featuring drivers George Russell and Nicholas Latifi, team principal Simon Roberts and the team's new managing director Jost Capito.
