Williams Racing will not unveil a new livery at the United States Grand Prix; instead, the team has opted for a distinctive sticker on the rear wing. In collaboration with their team sponsor, the cryptocurrency giant Kraken, six Williams fans will see their digital avatars featured on the race cars of Alex Albon and Franco Colapinto. These digital images have been created by renowned Web3 artist Candy Apple.
A Unique Collaboration with Fans
In an exciting initiative, a staggering hundred thousand Williams fans received an exclusive profile picture in the form of collectible digital art. Created by leading Web3 artist Candy Apple, these images pay homage to the team’s rich history. As the Austin Grand Prix approaches, six of these digital representations will be proudly displayed on the back wing of the Williams cars.
Fan-Selected Designs Take Center Stage
After multiple voting rounds, Grid Pass holders have chosen their favorite designs to be featured on the cars. These selected designs will make their debut during the upcoming US Grand Prix, appearing for the first time on the rear wing of the FW46. James Bower, Williams’ commercial director, expressed his excitement about engaging fans through this unique approach, stating, “We are constantly exploring innovative ways to share our history and ambitions with our supporters. This collection of digital images is a wonderful example of that.”
Subtle Adjustments in the Livery
This marks the third occasion this year that Williams has implemented subtle changes to their vehicle livery. During the British Grand Prix at Silverstone, the iconic Union Jack first made an appearance on the sides of the FW46. Additionally, in Monaco, the team sported a sticker of the pink Duracell bunny on the air intake. Despite these modifications, a completely new color scheme has yet to be introduced.
Anticipation for Future Designs
The engagement between Williams and its fanbase through digital art highlights the team’s commitment to innovation in the ever-evolving world of Formula 1. As the sport continues to grow and embrace technology, such collaborations not .comy enhance fan experience but also strengthen the identity of the team. The introduction of fan-created content on a global stage exemplifies how teams are moving towards a more inclusive atmosphere.
With the Austin Grand Prix just around the corner, the racing world eagerly anticipates how this novel integration of fan art will resonate within the community. As Williams Racing showcases the unique contributions of their supporters, it sets a precedent that could inspire other teams in Formula 1 to explore similar avenues of engagement. The emphasis on community and history serves as a testament to the team’s desire to forge a lasting connection with its fans.
