“We’re Winning It All This Year”: Ferrari’s Glamorous 2024 Car Leaves Tifosi Manifesting Return of Glory

Ferrari have delighted their F1 fans by revealing a glamorous livery of their 2024 F1 car. The Italian outfit unveiled the SF-24 in a short video on February 13 and have left the Tifosi drooling with the new car’s look. Now, the Tifosi have already started manifesting victories coming in the 2024 season for Ferrari in the new challenger.

The SF-24 livery draws inspiration from Ferrari’s 2023 499p HyperCar that won the 24 Hours of Le Mans. It has a brighter shade of Scarlet red with yellow and white pinstripes along the side of the car. They have minimized any usage of black or exposed carbon fiber, with only some visible on the rear side of the side pod from the top angle.

The car overall looks great and is receiving positive responses from the fans too. Many fans have been theorizing that the Ferrari livery could be one of the best this season after they revealed the Le Mans inspiration.

One fan, @fake_engineer7, manifested how glory could return to Maranello via the 2024 car. They said, “We’re winning it all this year. Charles Leclerc, 2024 drivers champion”.

Charles Leclerc would also love for that prediction to be true. Regardless even if Ferrari wins a handful of races this year, it would delight the Tifosi a lot.

The car looks quick and possibly is fulfilling the 95% new” claim by Ferrari boss Frederic Vasseur.

Ferrari goes all in with the paint on the 2024 car amid carbon fiber liveries

Most other teams have been inculcating some black elements in their liveries to save some weight. Apparently, shedding paint helps teams to gain lap time. However, Ferrari have chosen to go all in with the paint to produce an awesome livery.

Except for Aston Martin and Williams, all other teams have some predominant areas of exposed carbon fiber. While even Aston Martin and now Ferrari have some of the exposed carbon fiber, most of the visible angles don’t showcase it.

On top of that, the traditional red paint scheme certainly becomes eye-catching, making the SF-24 stand out. This year, the Le Mans livery inspiration has just elevated the Italian team’s car looks.

This also suggests that Ferrari may have kept their car weight in check to allow them to have almost all of their car painted. There were reports that the SF-24 had managed to come at the minimum weight requirement of 798 kg, after being overweight in the last two seasons. So, fans would also expect that a fresher and brighter Ferrari car would also be faster this year.

Being the only non-Red Bull team to win a race in 2023, there are high expectations from the Prancing Horse. Moreover, having signed Lewis Hamilton for 2025, Ferrari will want to take one step closer to championship contention this season, to set themselves up for next year.
