RacingNews365’s technical analyst Paolo Filisetti casts his eye over the second 2025 F1 car to be launched – the Williams FW47!
The Williams FW47 launched this morning at Silverstone represents a significant evolution beyond the 2024 FW46, showcasing notable changes in various areas of the car. The front suspension remains push-rod, with a noticeable development in the front axle design compared to its predecessor. By moving the front axle forwards through a strongly inclined push-rod, the car features a longer nose cone which also allows for relocation of the radiator inlets to reduce turbulent air influence. The rear of the FW47 sees substantial work, with the adoption of push-rod suspension altering aerodynamic interactions and enabling the creation of a new rear diffuser. While aspects like the cockpit and engine air-intake resemble the FW46, the narrow engine hood area and interconnected sidepod profile demonstrate meticulous design modifications for enhanced aerodynamics.
