With the 2008 championship over with and the year winding down to its final days, Formula One's constructors are preparing to unveil their new cars for 2009.

Ferrari and Toyota are expected to be the first to unveil their new cars, with a live reveal at Fiorano and an online release of images from Cologne on or about the 15th of January. The next day McLaren-Mercedes is tipped to present their latest chrome-dipped blingmobile at the team's high-tech facility in Woking. Williams and Renault are set to unveil their cars on January 19 at a test session, with BMW Sauber running its first public testing shortly afterwards. With Honda F1's future hanging in the balance, that leaves Red Bull, Toro Rosso and Force India, which are expected to show their cars in February and March. Stay tuned as we bring you images and details of the latest crop as they make their debuts.

red bull is the big team
toro rosso is the sattelite
so, this guy, the owner of red bull, owns 2 formula one teams
turns up that the smaller team, the toro rosso had biger results than the higher-budget team, including sebastain vettel's win at the 2008 italian grad prix
speaking of vettel he is the youngest driver to drive at a grand prix meeting, the youngest that got a fine, the youngest to score points in a race, the youngest to win a pole , and you guessed it... the youngest to win a race
this year he'll be racing for the big team, red bull racing
