Why Williams don't paint his nose like this ???

As good as that looks from the 3/4 angle, I can't see it looking particularly pretty from the front. We've just got to pray that the dicknose is something that is quietly forgotten about this year.

In my opinion, it's quite ok. Always room for improvement, but with the actual nose (bulkhead to nosetip) being quite a bit longer this year, the stump is ratio wise smaller. Aesthetic wise it's not bugging me.

That being said, I'd just paint the stump black.

Don't forget the infamous Force India incident of 2014
It may be invisible from some angles but once you see it, you can't unsee it!!

It didn't help of course they added a shiny finish on it. To be very frank, that thing had the coating of a dildo. If they just used a mat finish it'd have been a bit better (a bit, emphasis on that).

Can we stop talking about big black dildos please and get back to the topic?

Sure...



I would rather see more color on the back of that rear wing. Don't like it being all black.

Another view, what are you thinking about this little change in the livery ?

I'd add black edges on the stump to taper the white section better.

I like what you've done there. I think if you black out the stump, it'll through the whole nose out of proportion. We've got longer noses this year, why not show them off?

My final version, do you mean this ?

Yes, quite a lot better. It's a subtle difference, but the visual transition from the upper nose to the stump now looks much smoother.

So, let's start a petition for Williams to change his livery !

If someone know how to share this to the Williams twitter account or something like that...

i don't have a problem with the williams livery at all. i agree that the 'thumb' nosetip looks awkward but it is what it is.

I think williams would do the livery like that if they thought that would be better. The thing is 'better'is not decided from aesthetical standpoint,
but from a promotional standpoint, and fact is that the sponsors on the nose will be less 'visible' due to the above change to the livery.
It's ok on a picture, but a moving product on tv is a different story, and that goes too for other view angles.

with more of the white around it like it is originally, the sponsors stand out more. see it like a statue in the middle of a park or a statue that is sided by
a whole bunch of bushes or trees.

Easy fix. Move the nose stripes out so that the red centre stripe on the edge of the nose. That way you can see more of the design from the side, and the nose sponsors have there space back.

I have heard something about STR getting a sugarfree RedBull coating over their cars.
