Sauber will launch its 2010 car to the media in Valencia on January 31.

It is the first team to announce a specific date after plans for a joint launch fell through. It will reveal its car the weekend before the first official test at the Ricardo Tormo circuit just outside Valencia, where almost all the teams are expected to be running a 2010 car.

Although it has just one driver, Kamui Kobayashi, confirmed for next season, Pedro de la Rosa and Giancarlo Fisichella have both been strongly linked to the second seat. Team owner Peter Sauber has said he has a second driver signed but is not ready to reveal his identity yet.
