Classic red livery, crossed by white and yellow bands, while black tones decrease. These are the first images of the new SF-24, the single-seater entrusted to Charles Leclerc And Carlos Sainz for the 2024 Formula 1 season which begins on March 2 in Bahrain.
The SF-24 was presented in Fiorano, in the presence of a small number of guests, and in online connection with the rest of the world. Those in attendance included President John Elkann, CEO Benedetto Vigna and Vice President Piero Ferrari, as well as team principal Fred Vasseur and the drivers.
The SF-24 is the third car of the new generation ground effect introduced two years ago by Formula 1, but he also sees a discontinuity in the shapes. White has been reintroduced after the success achieved last year by the special bodywork seen in Las Vegas, while yellow has always been the second color of Ferrari but the longitudinal stripes were missing on the 1968 livery and they had never been paired with whites.
The shade of red is Racing Red 2024, opaque. Black is limited to the bottom of the car, front bulkheads, part of the halo and other details. The rims are also red with a double white and yellow stripe, colors which also characterize the racing numbers – 16 and 55 – which continue to be present. Ferrari Sans, the official font of the Maranello company, but now in italics.
