That nose is huge, other than that difficult to make any comments from only one view point.

Great looking car. That wide nose is different so it'll be interesting hoe the car performs aerodynamically.

The dark colour scheme not only looks great, but masks the ugly lines forced by the '09 regulations.

Don't pay too much attention to the colour scheme just yet:

The car has been unveiled in a temporary winter testing livery, with the final 2009 colour scheme set to be presented next month. http://www.itv-f1.com/News_Article.aspx?id=44956

These 2009 F1 cars don't look so bad as the test cars we saw at the end of last year after all. The Williams, McLaren and Renault are all quite nice.

Remember those test cars were BMW's and there is no set of regulations under which BMW can make good looking cars.

The Williams looks clean, and compact as well considering there is a flywheel KERS underneath. In terms of aesthetics, it is second to McLaren in my book.

Good looking car given the 09 regulations.

I hope the switch from Philips Shavers to the generic Philips brand and the additional Philips logos also mean more sponsorship for the team since a lot of their other sponsors left them.

Those bumps on the external side of the side pods look interesting. I wonder what is under them.

This car ir really good looking in this livery, but we all know they´re going to change it.

Anyway, Williams has had some of the best looking cars of the last years, and I hope they don´t change very much now. Blue and white looks nice.

I think its a good colour scheme. It hides how awful looking the wide noses are but its not surprising they'll try to recoup some of the downforce from the nose. From some angles the Williams does look pretty but I think its part colour scheme and partly the design of the nose section.

Looks alright, not bad but not great. Looking forward to seeing their livery though.
