Ferrari to have a new name in 2019

Ferrari did not quite have the season that they wanted to in 2018, as despite having the best car on track for a large part of 2018, they couldn’t cash in and leave Mercedes behind.

A lot of it had to do with the mistakes that the team made as a whole; driving mistakes on part of Vettel and strategic mistakes on the team’s part.

However, still they did manage to give Mercedes a good run for their money, with the championship race seeming to be a lot more closer than in the last few years.

Going into 2019, Ferrari would be hoping that things could change for the better and with Leclerc coming in in place of Kimi, the future is already here for the Italian team.

Now, it is not only the driver lineup that looks different for 2019, but it is also the official team entry name for Ferrari, which will be Scuderia Ferrari Mission Winnow.

Racing Point Force India too had a name change, as they dropped Force India altogether, with the team now being called Racing Point F1 team.

With Rich Energy coming in as the sponsor for Haas, they too would be known a little differently in 2019; Rich Energy Haas F1 Team.

Twitter did not seem amused with Ferrari’s new name, with a lot of fans taking the mickey out of Ferrari for this new name.

What do you think about Ferrari’s new name for the 2019 season? Have things already begun on a bad note for them?
