This Link should take you to Autosport's front page where there is a list of launch dates (where known) and photos of launches that have already happened.
 
Animal - that isn't Mercedes GP 2010 car. Thats the 2009 Brawn GP car painted in the Mercedes GP colours.

That launch was the team launch, the car launch is on the 1st of Feb.

Indeed but I happened to have Autosport open in another tab so it was the easiest one for me to link to at the time.
 
http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/81144 pics of saubers launch

i was hoping that they would ditch the BMW esque livery (free publicity for BMW in both name and colour scheme) in favour of something a bit different, especially given that they have no sponsorship visible, maybe they will change it for the first race.

lots of cars following the high nose and shark fin route this year along with lots of sculpting around the airbox.

ferraris livery looks horrible with the white though IMHO
 
renaults new livery looks lovely, as does the car, however word on the street is that whilst the main car is the new r30, the nose and rear wing are just dummy ones, which is a shame as it looks great! shame it'[ll invariably have sprouted a fussy nose and bargeboards by the first test session tomorrow!

i'm confused. why are they called BMW Sauber?

glad they launched the car in the sun this year instead of at 8am under a bloody shadow.

because they retained the name of the last entry they had and thats what they signed the agreement as, and they havent yet asked for dispensation from the teams to change it (cant see why the teams would object tbh), so until that happens BMW get free sponsorship for a team they unceremoniously dropped last year which is dressed in a similar livery to their corporate racing coloiurs....! i cant see that sitting pretty with anyone, but sauber seem happy enough, which i do think is strange.

and on the look of the BMW sauber, it looks awful that nose is vile, but as most of the teams have gone similar in design, i guess it must work
 
Yeah a bit suprised they havent had a name change (reason stated above) but tech it is BMW Sauber Ferrari surely they will change name before the season, maybe awaiting another big sponsor?

maybe they are hanging on for a title sponsor, so they only change the name once. there were romours linking them to nescafe with their nespresso brand but havennt heard anything further about it.
 
I am liking the cars without those stupid bloody wheel covers on them this year. I've missed being able to see the brakes glow red hot :p

Liking the Renault livery this year, the BMW sauber looks nice with the graphite grey instead of the blue.

James
 
aparently there is more to do with the name BMW sauber than simply changing it for a new one, something to do with points and TV monies, although brawn surely set a precident last year with regards to transfering it along with the teams assets?
 
Brawn got dispensation to change as I am sure Sauber would if they wanted to, as said, maybe they are waiting for a title sponsor beofre changing it

I like the New McLaren, Renault and MercedesGP cars this year, but being a McLaren fan anyway I hope the number 1 and 2 are there at the end of the season (swapped arounf of course :D)
 
i like the initial black and silver look of the mercedes, and then it gets spoilt by that god awful pale blue of petronas... its also looks like they have styled the nose off of alan prost
