Sauber is to follow the example of McLaren and unveil its 2014 contender online.
The C33 will be unveiled online on Sunday 26 January at 16:00 (CET), two days after the McLaren launch and around twenty-four hours after Ferrari takes the wraps of its, as yet unnamed, contender.
Two days later, on Tuesday 28 January, the first pre-season test gets underway at Jerez where the C33 will gets the Swiss outfit's programme underway.
Hopefully, Sauber will have learned from the problems encountered in December when it named Adrian Sutil as its driver, the Hinwil outfit's website (and media site) crashing under the strain.
Along with Sutil, the team has confirmed Esteban Gutierrez for a second season with Russian youngster Sergey Sirotkin as test driver.
