During a historic event in London, all F1 teams will come together to reveal their liveries for the 2025 Formula 1 season. This is expected to be done using what is known as 'show' cars. Sauber will then take the car they have used and put it up for sale.
Due to it being Formula 1's 75th anniversary this year, they decided to hold a special event. The event, F1 75, will be held at the 02 Arena in London. All ten teams will come together to celebrate this special evening.
Sauber puts car from F1 Launch event up for sale
The cars on show at the F1 75 event are not expected to be the actual F1 cars that the teams will enter with. Most teams have already made plans for their cars in the following days after the event, which would make transporting highly illogical and difficult. Instead, the teams are likely to use 'show' cars.
Sauber, one of the teams using a 'show' car, will take the car that they use and auction it off. Through F1 Authentics, fans will then be able to buy the car. After launching the car in 2024, the Swiss team did the same thing. That car is still for sale at a price point of over 305 thousand euros.
Sauber opted for a rebranding in 2024, with new sponsors and a new colour scheme, the team was given a new identity. For the upcoming season, they have decided to go with green and black. Taking to social media, they have announced their new suits for 2025.
