Doesn’t seem too long ago the 2022 season finished… but regardless with Christmas and New Year out the way the dates are starting to fall into line…

Confirmed dates so far:

Haas - 31.01.23



Redbull - 03.02.23



Williams - 06.02.23



Alfa Romeo - 07.02.23



AlphaTauri - 11.02.23



Aston Martin - 13.02.23



McLaren - 13.02.23



Ferrari - 14.02.23



Mercedes - 15.02.23




Alpine - 16.02.23



Interesting to see if we see real cars or just renders or ‘livery launches’

Hoping Ferrari appreciate how loved their livery was last year. Black wings again plz.

Even if it's real cars, they bring up extensive packages during testing - and things can change...

Alpha Tauri is honest about doing just a livery launch - https://www.formula1...fZPjkryBvy.html

Where they launch the same livery they've had since they started, no doubt.

The AT01 and AT02 liveries were to be called identical. The AT03 livery was truly different. So Im wondering if the AT04 will be different or not.

Scrolling through the page, I mistook the Merc F1 W14 as FW14. Think I'm living in the past again.

Yes, but it is New York!    The Big Apple, baby.     Never mind the quality, feel the width.

 

As if anyone in NYC gives a hoot about some second division F1 team named after a......whatever Alpha Tauri is.

First ‘livery reveal’ tomorrow… going by their logo tweaks, won’t be anything too groundbreaking from Haas. But busy couple of weeks ahead now!

If I were a teams media department I’d be getting the design team to come up with the most creative red-getting renders they possibly could to get the social media/f1 news buzzing. Something totally mental.

So Haas and Red Bull this week will just be livery launches, do we know what the first real car reveal will be?

Day one of testing probz - and even then you can’t be sure these days

Well it’s an odd numbered year so Haas will either be grey or in the colours of a dodgy sponsor.

You can tell it’s a Red Bull livery reveal when it doesn’t even get mentioned in the launch thread 😂

No point posting any pictures, Christ, their livery designer must hate his job.

Why?  He retired in 2015 and now lives happily in Andalucia.  They haven't managed to recruit a new one as yet.

The minging purple car of 2015 is starting to look like an originality high point.

Should they even have these "livery launches" when the livery is more or less identical each year? Moving a few stickers around doesn't count in my book.

 

Just send out a quick tweet stating "yeah, no changes this year" and get on with it.

 

Anyway, good thing that this thread exists, as Autosport doesn't have a launch calendar up and running this year (or if there is one, I can't find it).

I was saying a team should do this!! Alfa Romeo made a complete fake floor just to wind up the other F1 teams and make them investigate it

I’d 100% be doing this - just make a totally outlandish design and let everyone speculate about it

^ What a shame nobody copied it.
