Williams uses last year's chassis.
Williams has confirmed the use of last year's chassis this season to save money for the ongoing development of the 2026 car.
Like many teams, Williams modified last year's cars, bringing them in line with the regulations, and do not plan to actively refine them during the season.
Elbon and Carlos Sainz have the same cars, but if Alex is happy with his car, especially since he drove it all last season, then Carlos had questions in Shanghai. However, Williams has three chassis, so you can use a spare one for Sainz if necessary.
"The monocoque for 2025 has been improved over the FW46, but it's the same monocoque. As we said, the FW47 is an evolution of last year's car, which is in line with our goals for 2026," commented a team representative.
