Development[]

Evolution of the Williams FW43 of the previous season , the FW43B is distinguished by a new livery, white, electric blue, azure blue and a touch of yellow in reference to the victorious single-seaters of the team at the end of the 1980s and 1990s , when Williams was backed by tobacco company Camel .

The FW43B is presented on the internet on March 5 , 2021. The single-seater was to be unveiled via a mobile application designed for the occasion by the British team; this one having been hacked, Williams was forced to broadcast some images of his new car as a presentation.
