Williams FW31
Williams unveiled their new 2009 car, the FW31, at the Algarve circuit in Portugal on Monday. Sporting their winter test livery, the new car features the expected low, long front wing and short, high rear wing in keeping with this year's F1 regulations.

KERS, the Kinetic Energy Recovery System, has also been fitted to the car, which test driver Nico Hulkenberg is set to drive for the first time later today.
With its small budget, from the outside the car looks less sophisticated than the new Ferrari, Renault, Toyota and McLaren, which should assure that it remain in the field filler category.
