This car was originally designed by Antonia Terzi (1971-2021) and she was a pioneer of adopting fluid dynamics tools for focus on aero and air flow under the car. Before #WilliamsF1 she also worked for #Ferrari with Rory Byrne till 2001.

The #FW26 nose cone is also named "The Walrus" concept.

I always thought the updated front nose looked so much better

It looked but whole package didn't deliver despite having the best engine on the grid at that time... #BMWPower... the lack of aero department wasn't able to fix all the issues till the season ends.

The lady who designed that nose passed away a few years ago. Sad. I think it looked quite nice .
