Mercedes to present W08 on February 23

The Mercedes team, champion of the Formula One World Championship for the past three years, has announced that it will present the W08 on February 23 at Silverstone. This car will be used in the 2017 World Championship.

This presentation will take place one day before Ferrari presents its prototype in Fiorano and four days before the first pre-season tests, which will be held in Barcelona on February 27.

Mercedes has not yet announced the official driver who will partner with British driver Lewis Hamilton, following the retirement of German driver Nico Rosberg, the current world champion. However, negotiations with Finnish driver Valtteri Bottas, currently with the Williams team, are ongoing.

On February 23, the W08 presentation will be held in Silverstone. Mercedes will offer VIP tickets to fans who follow them on their official Facebook profile.
