Pics: Williams are the first F1 team to reveal their car for 2015

We expect a flurry of these over the next few weeks but Williams are first off the grid.

As we speculated yesterday, the new car season in F1 has just begun and Williams are first to unveil their car for 2015. Okay, they only revealed two pictures but it is a start. The big news is about the nose. New regulations in 2015 mean that the noses will be much lower and hark back to designs from almost 20 years ago

Here's a closer look Williams' chief technical officer Pat Symonds told ESPN: "The change in regulations offered us a slight headache. The new front bulkhead and nose geometry had much more of an impact than we had initially anticipated and the effect on the aero was profound. The team have worked hard on pulling back the deficit these regulations have made for us." It is certainly not pretty, but the real proof will be on the track and how the other teams adapt to the new regulations. Already, Lotus have had a pop at them...

As a doyen of distinct F1 noses of late, we can’t decide what the latest @WilliamsRacing reminds us of most... pic.twitter.com/g0fZOaYzLp
