McLaren have confirmed that they will launch their 2016 Formula 1 car online on February 21, just a day before pre-season testing kicks off in Barcelona.
The team announced the date on Twitter, whilst also taking a swipe at Ferrari which teased fans with a “big announcement” and a countdown which concluded on Monday, only to reveal a registration process for ten fans to attend their launch in Maranello on an unspecified date.
“Feeling blue? Seeing red?? You can ALL see the MP4-31 launch on Feb 21! #McLarenMP431,” McLaren wrote on social media.
McLaren are the first to announce their launch date, though it’s expected the majority will launch on the opening day of the first Barcelona test.
