McLaren to unveil new car online ahead of Jerez test



McLaren will unveil their 2014 Formula One car, the Mercedes-powered MP4-29, in a digital-only online launch on Friday January 24, four days ahead of the first pre-season test of the year in Jerez, Spain. 

Images, videos and information about the car will be revealed on the Woking team’s official website at 1200 hours GMT. 

The news, which effectively confirms McLaren’s presence at the first test of the year in Spain, comes a day after Lotus announced that they would not attend the four-day Jerez session and will instead launch their 2014 challenger at the second test of the year in Bahrain.

Meanwhile, Mercedes, the 2013 constructors’ championship runners-up, confirmed plans to roll out their new car on the opening morning of the Jerez test on January 28.
