Alfa Romeo has unveiled its latest Formula 1 car ཧin 𒈔the Barcelona pitlane ahead of pre-season testing, becoming the 10th and last team to launch its 2020 challenger. 

The official roll out came shortly after midfield rivals Haas did the same at the Circuit de🧜 Barcelona-Catalunya, as Alfa Romeo uncovered its C39 machine in the pitlane of the Spanish Grand Prix venue.🎉 

After running its 2020 car in a special one-off ‘snakesk🏅in’ livery during an initial shakedown and filming day at Fiorano last week, Alfa Romeo reverted to its traditional red and white൩ colours for its launch. 

Team regulars Kimi Raikkonen, Antonio Giovinazzi and reserve and test driverꦏ Robert Kubica were all present as Alfa Romeo’s new contender was rev👍ealed. 

Kubica will ꦑbe the first driver to sample the C39 as he conducts the opening ꦏmorning of pre-season running for the Swiss squad, before Giovinazzi gets behind the wheel for the afternoon session. 

Raikkonen is due to drive fꦰor a single full day on Thursday, with Giovinazzi rounding out the final day of the opening test on Friday.

Alfa Romeo, which has been renamed Alfa Romeo Or𝓡len Racing for 2020 due to its new co-title sponsors which followed Kubica from Williams, is aiming to improve on its eighth-placed finish in the 2019 constructors’ championship. 

In i🧸ts second season under the management of team principal Frederic Vassuer - and its first as the Alfa Romeo guise - the team collected 57 points across the year, with its best result coming in Brazil as Raikkonen led home a 4-5 finish. 

Raikkonen scored 4ﷺ3 of Alfa’s points haul as he finished 12✤th in the drivers’ standings. In contrast, Giovinazzi contributed just 14 points to the team’s total on his way to 17th during his first full-season in F1. 

The opening day of winter testing꧒ begins at 0900 local time (0🅰800 GMT). 

The covers are off. .
