Williams FW33

[timbo]

Interesting!
So, in fact the A-arm connection to the upright is arranged in such way so as to increase effective wheelbase.
Is it a result of their unusual packaging?

[Henning]

a lot more funnier....

That space is where R2D2 is going to sit

[Francesc]

Interesting that the floor is bound by the rear wing, so if the wing flexes laterally, the floor too?

[roadie]

No, the rear wing isn't connected to the floor. The wing is only supported by the central pillar, and it must be this which allows any movement in the assembly.

I meant the other way round, zoom the image and you will see what I mean.

Sorry, for reposting this image once again, but I have a question about those black marks on the floor around both rear wheels. It looks like if it was burned, but exhaust is in different place, so what could id be?

[humble sabot]

It's shading from a change in thickness.

[FW17]

The livery looks sad.

[raymondu999]

Really? I thought it looked good. Pardon the hideous resolution, but this was the best shot I could get so far.

[FW17]

Back is somewhat digestible but the front cockpit, nose cone, wing looks so damn ugly

[raymondu999]

Found better shots. Credits to F1fanatic.

[mith]

I liked temporary livery more. It was so classic and elegant.

I guess they were waiting for when they came 4th in the WCC. That way the car can look like a big 8-ball
(I speak of the billiard game, not of the little trinket)

This reminds me of the Rothmans Livery from the mid 90s ...

We might not have the Red, White, Blue and Gold of the glory years, but there is still a touch of nostalgia right there
