Latest F1 2025 car launch details revealed

Formula 1's pre-season has undergone a revolution ahead of the 2025 season.

There's going to be the first-ever collective F1 launch with all 10 teams on February 18 at The O2 arena in London.

All 10 teams will reveal their liveries for the 2025 season at the event but that won't stop at least some of the teams from holding their own pre-season launch event.

Pre-season testing starts on February 26. Here's the schedule for launch season...

Williams - February 14

Latest F1 2025 car launch details revealed

Williams has gone as far as to promise an actual 2025 Formula 1 car on February 14, ahead of F1's new collective launch.

Its event will take place at Silverstone - and while the actual Williams livery will be kept on ice until the F1 event, the Silverstone showcase will feature the FW47 "in a bespoke one-off livery".

For the first time ever, all 10 teams will come together to launch the new F1 season.

Every team will reveal its new livery during an event at The O2 arena in London on February 18, just over a week before the start of pre-season testing in Bahrain.

The logistics mean we won't see any new cars, on stage at least, but it will feature a mix of appearances from drivers and senior team figures, and other entertainment aspects.

Haas - February 18

Latest F1 2025 car launch details revealed

Haas has announced that its new VF-25 will run for the first time at Silverstone on February 16 with Esteban Ocon under 'filming day' rules - but don't expect to see it then.

Due to the combined launch event, Haas is keeping all pictures and footage from that run under wraps until its slot at F1's main launch event, when it will also release the Silverstone imagery so we can see what its actual 2025 car looks like too.

Ferrari - February 18/19

Latest F1 2025 car launch details revealed

Ferrari became the first team to announce a season launch when Fred Vasseur revealed Ferrari's 2025 launch will take place on home soil at Maranello, one day after F1's collective event on February 19.

But we'll get any initial look at the new design on the previous evening, as Ferrari will issue renders of its actual 2025 car being released to coincide with its slot at the 02 event.

The next day will be the first time the 2025 Ferrari runs, as Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc's new car heads out of the garage at the team's Fiorano test track as is now standard for Ferrari's season launches.

Vasseur's promised a 99% new car versus 2024 with only "1% of parts carrying over".

Aston Martin - February 23 and 24

Latest F1 2025 car launch details revealed

Aston Martin will reveal its livery and have key figures speak at F1's 02 launch event but you won't see its 2025 F1 car until a reveal on February 23.

One day later Aston will shakedown its new challenger at Silverstone.

Mercedes - February 24 and 25

Latest F1 2025 car launch details revealed

Mercedes is breaking a long-held tradition of launching its cars with a Silverstone shakedown and will instead do so in Bahrain before pre-season testing.

On Monday the team will reveal its 2025 challenger to the world before its maiden on-track voyage on Tuesday ahead of testing starting on the Wednesday.
