Re: F1 2019 car launches and testing
Oh come on WIlliams, what have you been doing for heavens sake. You did no development last year so surely you could have started on the car in April!! It should be done by now.Williams have pulled out of the first day of pre-season testing on Monday as their new FW42 car is not ready.
Deputy team principal Claire Williams says the car will run on Tuesday - the second of four days of testing at Barcelona's Circuit de Catalunya.

Is this not blatant false advertising. How do you have Alfa Romeo Racing when it's not powered by Alfa Romeo?

I think they're appealing to the casual observer that doesn't know the regulations that well.

The DRS is massive this year, but that rear wing sponsorship on the Ferrari is perfectly positioned.
