The Superleague entrants will gather at Barcelona for a pre-season test day in July when the football clubs involved will launch their cars.

The 20 clubs will unveil the liveries on their 750 horsepower, V12-engined Panoz chassis at the Spanish test on July 29, where the drivers are also expected to be announced.

For the series to hold the attention of football, as well as racing, fans each car must be instantly recognisable.
