Time for a Silver Arrows drive!

.

Mercedes and its drivers will be on stage later today when the Silver Arrows outfit unveils its 2017 W08 challenger.

The launch will once again take place at Silverstone at 13h00 CET and will be followed by Q&A sessions with Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas.

Weather permitting ( with storm Doris hivering in the area), Hamilton is also due to give the team's W08 its first shakedown run in the morning, although media will be restricted.

But as usual, F1i will give you the lowdown as soon as the W08 breaks cover!
