Ferrari has revealed a new “blue” car design ahead of the 2024 Miami Grand Prix. Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc will race in cars featuring a new color scheme as they challenge Red Bull for the top position for this sprint weekend. Although the cars have a new color scheme, red is the dominant color with some blue across the car’s front wing, sidepods, and wheels.
Both drivers will also wear blue overalls as a sign to pay homage to Azzurro La Plata and Azzurro Dino, the two historical colors. The two shades of blue were common in Maranello more than 50 years ago, and they are making a comeback.
