This is nothing, next year will be an actual hell
"lol"... I know that. It means something, one race or no. Maybe it doesn't seem like it to young fans who see teams swapping out random liveries for other random liveries all the time but there is all sorts of history, tradition and national pride wrapped up in racing colours for a team like Ferrari.

Red is Italy’s racing colour and Ferrari is now the de facto national team (not the same as in the 50’s with Alfa, Maserati and Lancia all flying the flag and where a blue customer Ferrari was incidental). It’s also not the same as the NA Racing Team - that was a protest and not having a red Ferrari was a sign of how serious the situation was. I don’t think scrapping the red livery should be done frivolously - it’s important for Ferrari and Italy and not something to be taken lightly.Vanja #66 wrote: ↑02 May 2024, 22:01Knowing I'm in minority here, but I love how this looks actually. The red and light blue contrast is very strong, while darker blue tones that down a bit. Historical references are all over the car. Track photos will look stunning.

It would be something else if they choose to go with blue and white details next year, with HP logos it will make sense. Also with Hamilton's home country flag...
We are talking about a one-off.
