New Caterham drivers Charles Pic and Giedo van der Garde have unveiled the new CT03 ahead of the first test in Jerez.

Sky Sports F1's Ted Kravitz thinks the car looks very similar to the 2012 model, but feels their driver line-up could keep them ahead of rivals Marussia. "The Caterham driver line-up is slightly more experienced than Marussia's might be with rookie Giedo van der Garde lining up alongside Charles Pic, who at least has 20 grands prix under his belt," he said. "The car is essentially a tidied up version of their 2012 model; the same basic concept but with some nice aerodynamic detail work."
