Sauber will launch its 2011 car on January 31, the day before the first pre-season test in Valencia.

The C30 will be unveiled in the morning before a handful of demonstration laps in the afternoon for filming purposes. It is likely that it will be the first 2011 car to turn a wheel on track before it is joined by the rest of the F1 teams the following day for official testing.

The design of the 2011 Sauber will be the first led by technical director James Key, who penned the 2010 Force India before moving teams midway through last year. The hopes of Kamui Kobayashi and Mexican rookie Sergio Perez rest on the car's success.
