Williams confirm new colours with teaser video

Williams has released a teaser video for its 2022 challenger in which drivers Nicholas Latifi and Alex Albon hail "fresh" changes including a new colour scheme.

The Grove-based team will launch its new car on February 15, the first under F1's radically altered regulation set, which will look to build on the momentum gained with eighth in the constructors' last year.

In a social media video ahead of the launch, Latifi and Albon are given their first glimpse at the design of the new car, with both drivers seemingly confirming changes to the scheme.

"Oh wow, okay," reacted Latifi as he saw the car.

"That's different, that is actually really cool. [It's] fresh, I think I used that word last year but I think it applies more to this year. This is really cool actually.

"I think it is going to look nice under the lights, nice in photos.

"There is a new colour involved here which I am a fan of. I think it highlights some very cool features of the car. I think it highlights some very cool features on the car.

"A bit of a different pattern as well from what we have normally used, it is a nice way to start off a new era of F1."

The Canadian's new team-mate Alex Albon, who has replaced Mercedes-bound George Russell, added: "Woah! It is different. I like it. I would say it is more Williams.

"It is more simple in terms of the colour scheme. It's nice, it's cleaner and sharper."
