Mercedes To Unveil 2025 F1 Car on February 24

Mercedes has announced that the unveiling of their 2025 F1 car, the Mercedes-AMG F1 W16 E Performance, will occur on February 24, right before the pre-season testing begins. This launch follows the team’s livery reveal at the F175 Live event in London on February 18. The W16 marks a significant transition for Mercedes, as it will be the first car since 2012 not driven by Lewis Hamilton, who has moved to Ferrari. In his place, rookie Kimi Antonelli will team up with George Russell, who now takes on the role of the senior driver.

The W16 will feature a black livery, a color choice that resonates with the team's commitment to diversity and was initiated under Hamilton’s influence starting in 2020. The design of the car is expected to evolve from the 2024 model, incorporating adjustments based on last season's performances, given that 2025 will be the final year for the current set of regulations. Further details regarding the full design and performance are anticipated to be shared soon as the launch date approaches.
