    Williams gets Martini sponsorship

    Ignoring the "nose" , looks pretty good. Let's hope Williams is on the way back up after their recent dismal efforts.

    The Williams was impressive in testing and the new livery certainly looks the part. The best looking car on the grid in my opinion!

    From reading a report on the pre-season testing in Spain - any team with a Mercedes engine is doing well. Renault on the other hand had a very discouraging test.

    Williams, luckily, have a Mercedes deal.

I know, not likely, but what the hell, this seems to be the year that somebody could come from nowhere and take it. And I would love to see Williams back on top. You can laugh at me next Thanksgiving when the season ends.

    After seeing the cars on track, too much white on the Williams. It looks great in close up and telephoto shots, but I wish the Martini stripes were wider and ran down the sidepods. It would have made the cars stand out much more in most of the camera shots.
