This article will be updated as new car launch dates are confirmed.
The 2022 Formula 1 season is shaping up to be one of the best in a long time. We have the magic combination of new regulations to mix up the grid, a new world champion ready to defend their title, and the longest Formula 1 season ever with a record-breaking 23 races scheduled.
Before we get to all of that excitement, we have the first task to complete, the car launches.
The car launches are typically the first chance anyone outside of an F1 team gets to see what each team’s new car looks like. 2022 is going to be one of the most exciting car launch periods in a long time thanks to the new regulations.
This will be the first time each team gets to showcase their own interpretation of the new regulations. It’ll be super interesting to see how each team’s car looks at launch. Will a big name team get it wrong, and will there be any surprises?

Haas F1 Car Launch
Haas has showcased their 2022 car, albeit only digitally via a 3D rendering. It does showcase how their 2022 car will potentially look, although we suspect that there will be a fair few changes come the first race of the year.

Alfa Romeo F1 Car Launch
Alfa Romeo has announced their 2022 car launch date as the 27th of February. This makes the Alfa Romeo launch the last one in the calendar so far, and comes after the first pre-season test.
We would presume that Alfa Romeo will run a heavily camouflaged car at the first pre-season test with a full livery reveal on the 27th of February.
Williams F1 Car Launch
Williams is yet to announce the date of their car launch. Check back soon for details.
