The winter break is nearing an end and the Formula 1 teams have nearly completed their set-ups ahead of pre-season testing. From this video shared by the team themselves, it looks as if Alfa Romeo had a big celebration as all staff were present when the car switched on.

Alfa Romeo comes with an introduction video about their new car, including a humming engine noise. Undoubtedly the sound of the new C39 and considering the reactions it is loud enough. Unfortunately, they don't give a sneak preview yet. The team will showcase their car for the first time on February 19 in Barcelona.
