15.45 – These are the first impressions of George Russell.

So, here’s our FW43B! Looks good, doesn’t it? The livery is fresh and clean, and while it represents a new beginning at @WilliamsRacing I love the yellow accents which are a nod to the team’s fantastic heritage and previous cars. Excited to see how it looks on track in Bahrain! pic.twitter.com/jnNdbkpKaC

14.30 – George Russell su Twitter expressed all his disappointment at this ethically deplorable action: “It’s really a shame, the dress rehearsals were great and the experience would have enjoyed everyone. Whoever hacked the app certainly didn’t do a good deed. In any case, I am thrilled to show you the images of the car soon ”.
14.20 – This is the statement from Williams: “We are sorry that it is not possible to experience a completely innovative presentation together, but the app has been hacked”.
We planned to reveal the FW43B, via an augmented reality app later today. However, sadly, because the app was hacked prior to launch, this won’t be possible.
We were looking forward to sharing this experience with our fans & can only apologise that this hasn’t been possible.

14.15 – After the photo of the Aston Martin ‘extracted’ from the platform that managed the launch of the AMR21 before the presentation, the piracy has been overcome against Williams. The app that should have allowed everyone to experience the presentation with augmented reality has been hacked and therefore the team will not be able to proceed as expected.
