The first images of Sauber’s 2017 car will be published on Monday February 20, the Swiss team have confirmed.

The Ferrari-powered C36 is currently in the assembly stage, with the first fire-up due to take place next week.

It will then be rolled out in the week prior to the first pre-season F1 test in Catalonia, when Sauber complete a filming day at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya.

As it stands, the Sauber’s new challenger will be the first 2017 car to break cover, with Renault set to unveil the R.S.17 the following day.
