The car, which will be called the C43, will be launched at an event in Zurich.
Alfa Romeo will be hoping the car can build on the promising start they made to Formula 1’s new era which kicked off last season. They were regular points scorers in the first half of the season before other teams began to catch up. Nonetheless, the team based in Hinwil managed to hold on and beat Aston Martin to P6 in the constructors’ championship.
Piloting the cars this year will be Valtteri Bottas and Zhou Guanyu – the team one of four in the pit lane to stick with the same line up and retain both drivers for this coming season.
