Lost title sponsor and couldn't attract a new one.

Didn't get fired. Retires anyway.

williams releases two renders of the FW40

they're not giving much away here only things of note are the same nose, new rear wing mounting, and i guess an S duct in the nose? front wing and bargeboards are pure fiction.

Williams has released a render of its 2017 car






I'm hoping the other teams have better noses. Was hoping the nubs wood be gone.

Front wing looks almost like last year's just angled. I would expect there will be something across the top of the leading edge of the sidepod attaching to the cockpit. Most of the 2017 drawings have shown this. Who nose maybe the nub will be gone since this is just a cgi version.

Bonus word for you. Anomalous Propagation also referred to as AP. Hint: we talked about it yesterday...
