Williams unveiled his FW37 race car this year

The Williams team was a bit surprised and was the first to present their car this year. The FW37 was first available on the cover of the famous F1 Racing magazine, and soon after on the team's website.

At Williams, they hope to be able to continue the positive trend of successful results last season this year. “In designing the FW37, we looked back at last year’s race car, and tried to transfer things that worked well to the new one, while also focusing on areas where we saw we still had plenty of room to improve,” Pat Symonds explained. "Although the aerodynamics on last year's car were very good, we were able to improve in this area this year mainly due to the new rules regarding the nose of the car."

FW37 is therefore the expected evolution of last year's FW36, with which they took a big step forward in the constructors' championship, from ninth place in 2013 to third in 2014. “Last year's race car ran into some limitations, but this year we were able to get rid of them. We had quite a few weights in the FW36, which allowed us to make changes to the design of the car, without fear of being too heavy, ”explained Symonds.

As the rules have not changed significantly since last year, Williams expects them to be even closer to the leading Mercedes. “The more stable the rules, the smaller the differences between the cars. I hope that as a team we are able to continue to improve and catch Mercedes. However, we must not forget that we are also being chased by the teams that finished last year's championship behind us, ”added Symonds.
