Aston Martin have confirmed the launch date of their 2023 car.

The team will take the covers off their challenger, which will be called the AMR23, on February 13 at 7pm GMT.

The event will go ahead at the team’s Silverstone campus, where work is continuing on a new £200m factory, and will be broadcast across Aston Martin F1 digital channels.

Aston Martin finished seventh in the constructors standings in the last two seasons, but will be looking to take a step forward in 2023 after some encouraging performances in 2022.

The team will also have a new driver line-up for 2023, with Lance Stroll partnering Fernando Alonso – Alonso is replacing Sebastian Vettel at the team with the German having retired from F1 at the end of 2022.
