Williams has confirmed that its 2011 car will make its track debut at the first pre-season test in Valencia, but said an "official launch" is on hold.

The FW33 will hit the track as planned on February 1, but the final livery will not be revealed until a later date. The car will run in an "interim livery" while Williams finalises its paint scheme, with Venezuelan oil company PDVSA expected to get prime exposure on the car.

Rubens Barrichello will put the first miles on the new Williams before handing it over to Pastor Maldonado midway through day two.
