Get ready for the 2025 F1 season by staying across all the key dates as the teams announce launch plans for their new cars.

Formula 1’s announcement of a first-ever all-team launch featuring the grid’s 20 drivers at London’s O2 Arena on February 18 cast doubt over whether the teams would still stage their usual individual pre-season events.

It was only when, speaking at Ferrari’s annual pre-Christmas media day, the Italian squad’s team principal Frederic Vasseur confirmed a February 19 date for their own launch that it became clear this would likely be the case throughout the grid.

Williams have since announced a reveal ahead of F1’s special 75th anniversary event, which suggests that the launch calendar could after all take its usual shape with teams doing their events across the month of February.

Below are all of the launches that have been confirmed so far.

F1 special event: Launch on February 18

The special event to mark the start of Formula 1’s 75th anniversary will be held at iconic London venue, the O2.

It will be attended by all 20 drivers and feature interviews with the sport’s key players, as well as live music performances and entertainment for attending fans.

Tickets to the event reportedly sold out in less than an hour, with fans eager to get a first look at a grid that features plenty of changes after years of relative stability.

Teams are expected to present their new liveries on 2024 cars, as opposed to revealing their actual new challengers for the 2025 season.

Williams: Launch on February 14

Williams have confirmed that the FW47 will be launched at Silverstone on Valentine’s Day.

The event could be Carlos Sainz’s first official media appearance as a Williams driver, following his switch from Ferrari after being replaced by Lewis Hamilton.

Williams will present the car in a bespoke one-off livery, saving the reveal of the 2025 race livery that will be used by Sainz and Alex Albon for the all-team launch on February 18.

In a statement accompanying the announce of the launch, Sainz said: “We’re not far away from the Silverstone car launch and I can’t wait to see my new ride!”

Ferrari: Launch on February 19

Whether he was meant to or not, Vasseur lifted the lid on what will be a hugely anticipated Ferrari launch ahead of Lewis Hamilton’s first season with the team.

Going on previous years, the media are likely to be given a more in-depth opportunity to speak to Hamilton and his new team-mate Charles Leclerc.

It remains to be seen whether Ferrari will use this event to reveal their actual 2025 design, or wait until testing a week later.

Mercedes: Launch on February 24

The world will get the first look at the Mercedes car for the post-Hamilton era two days before pre-season testing.

The sport’s former all-dominant outfit will be hoping the new W16 proves fourth time lucky for them in the current rules era, as they bid to turn four races wins from 2024 into a more consistent challenge at the front from race to race. The release of the first images will come a day before the the car is given its first shakedown in Bahrain.

The W16 will be the first car of 18-year-old protégé Andrea Kimi Antonelli’s F1 career, with the Italian having been promoted from the team’s junior programme to partner George Russell in 2025.

When is F1 pre-season testing?

Pre-season testing takes place from February 26-28 at the Bahrain International Circuit, with just three days for the teams to get prepared for the new season.
