Scoop! 13 F1 teams to unveil their cars together!

In what will become one of the biggest ever events, all the present 13 F1 teams are in discussion for joint launch of their cars sometime in January. It is expected to happen at the Cheste Circuit in Valencia, after which the pre-season will kick-off. This will be the best experience to get up close with all the new cars.

Speaking to news agency Reuters at this week’s Motorsport Business Forum in Monaco, Lotus Formula One team boss Tony Fernandes revealed the gathering is likely to take place in Valencia at the end of January.  Lotus is hence expected to reveal a matchbox car.

Also present at the Monaco Forum, Brawn GP CEO Nick Fry promised something unusual for the multi-team launch: “At the moment I wouldn’t wish to spill the beans on exactly what we are going to do, but I think it is going to be very innovative.” It is expected to be clear once the team meeting gets over on Thursday. It could be a landmark event for F1 after a string of pull-outs (and new entrants too). The sport is in deep financial crisis too. So lets just hope everything changes for good.
