See they have pulled out of first day of testing and the shakedown due to the car 'not being ready'.
Signs not looking good for them at all.

Williams Reveal 2019 Race Car Renders
- Thread starter Paul Jeffrey
- Start date
Hope the car performs better than it looks, not a design that gives the team or drivers some precense on the track. Looks like they we're out of money and the engineers did a quick job.
If young George ( Russell ) is to have a future at Mercedes then this car needs to be at least a little better than last year . Ocon's probably already in line to replace Bottas next year ( 2020 ) if the finn doesn't improve ( although his problems are not all down to him given some of the ridiculous team orders he had to take when they weren't even really needed , such as in Sochi ) so realistically George is waiting for either Ocon to be no better than Bottas or for Lewis to retire to get a seat at Mercedes . In the meantime he has to REALLY impress though and it's a tough call that he'll have a good enough car to do that regardless of how talented he is . Also , I think if Lewis retired sooner rather than later Mercedes would probably poach a big name from another team rather than risk it on George especially if they don't learn much more about him because the Williams is so bad . I hope it is good enough for him to shine a bit because I rate him more than Lando to be honest ( who also has his work cut out to impress in the McLaren ) .
