The Williams FW48 has been revealed in Grove. The British team presented – first in front of employees and then to fans online – the new car for the 2026 season: all the images.
Everything is ready in Grove for the presentation of the FW48, the Williams car that will debut at the Bahrain International Circuit during the upcoming pre-season tests scheduled from February 11 to 13. After the British team’s absence from the five-day test at Montmeló due to delays in completing the new project, the Williams team has unveiled the new car for the 2026 season, which will see the duo Alex Albon and Carlos Sainz behind the wheel: a pairing that, last season, brought the team led by James Vowles to fifth place in the Constructors’ Championship.

Williams’ new car, the first under this new regulations, represents a tribute to the team’s iconic machines. “
The FW48 is flooded with a vibrant gloss blue, a colour that is unmistakably Williams and reflects the strength of our title partnership with Atlassian. This is contrasted with a flowing section of black, sweeping from the chassis side through to the rear of the car, which is framed by an iconic red and white keyline – a feature of championship-winning Williams cars like Nigel Mansell’s FW14B and Damon Hill’s FW18, which celebrates its 30th anniversary this year ,” reads the team’s presentation statement.
