Almost as soon as the new look was revealed, the mocking began. One of the more popular statements made by fans was that Ferrari had run out of red ink. Others said that this was perhaps the ugliest livery ever conceived by an F1 team and we’re struggling to think of one more deserving of that title.

The unique design on the cars marks the first anniversary of HP’s partnership with Ferrari as title sponsor. The special livery was revealed in Miami by drivers Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton, alongside Team Principal Fred Vasseur. The reveal was part of an HP “Messages of Forza” initiative.

As part of a series of ongoing joint projects between HP and Scuderia Ferrari engineers, the Miami livery development stands out as a clear example of innovation in action. Engineering teams from both Ferrari in Maranello and HP in Barcelona worked hand in hand and experimented with technologies and materials to achieve the final result.
