Ferrari confirms launch date for 2017 Formula 1 car

Ferrari has confirmed the date its 2017 car will be launched, making it the first team to do so. The Italian team confirmed on Monday during a Christmas media event that its new challenger, which has yet to be named but is currently known as 'project 668', will hit the track for the first time on February 24. Ferrari will use two of its allowed filming days to run the car at its Fiorano test track just three days before pre-season testing officially kicks-off in Barcelona on February 27 for four days. It's quite common for teams to use filming days for pre-launch shakedowns, ensuring all systems function as expected before the cars are shipped to Spain.
