Ferrari looks set to be the first team to unveil its 2009 car, according to reports in the Italian press.

La Gazzetta dello Sport claims the Maranello based outfit will reveal its new single seater at Fiorano in the middle of January.

The most likely date is January 15, the same day that Toyota is scheduled to reveal images of its TF109.

On the following day, the new McLaren will be launched at its Woking headquarters, and on January 19 the 2009-specification Williams and Renault cars will be test-debuted in Portugal.

On January 20, BMW-Sauber's F1.09 will run for the first time at Valencia's Ricardo Tormo circuit.

Red Bull does not plan to begin testing its RB5 until February, and Force India will wait until March.
