Mercedes GP will reveal their 2010 challenger during a launch in Stuttgart in late January, according to reports in the German press.
Earlier this month Nick Fry, Mercedes GP's chief executive, revealed that the teams planned a common launch in Spain in January in an attempt to save costs, but this plan was later scrapped amidst fears that smaller teams would be overshadowed and that there would not be enough cars ready by the proposed date.
In the wake of the collapse, German newspaper Bild has reported that Mercedes GP's launch will now take place at the Mercedes-Benz museum in Unterturkheim in late January.
The report added that Michael Schumacher will only make his debut for the team at the second round of pre-seasoning testing in Jerez on the 10th February, meaning Nico Rosberg will have the opportunity to break in the car a week earlier during testing in Valencia.
