All Formula 1 teams will gather at the O2 Arena in London on 2025 February 18th to unveil their liveries for the new season. However, several teams are also opting to hold their own car presentation. So far, only Ferrari has set a date, but Red Bull Racing team boss Christian Horner also hints at when the Austrian team might reveal its 2025 contender.
Will we see Verstappen's RB21 sooner than expected?
Ferrari was the first F1 team to reveal the launch date of the car Charles Leclerc, and Lewis Hamilton will drive next year. The Italian racing stable has earmarked the day after the joint presentation for their 2025 car reveal. Other teams are yet to announce a date, but Horner did hint at one regarding the RB21's unveiling.
"This is the first time that Adrian [Newey] will have had absolutely no input into the car. That’s for the team to step up to that challenge," the Red Bull team boss told Sky Sports. "I’m confident they can do that. They've got strength in depth, and we’ll see what the RB21 looks like when it's unveiled at the end of January."
With that, Horner seems to be hinting at an early launch date for Max Verstappen and Liam Lawson's new F1 car. GPblog has reached out to Red Bull for clarification since nothing has been officially announced yet.
