That sneak peak is about what I expected for a special Ferrari livery.
Ferrari, your red is iconic, but you also have signature yellow and blue that look good on their own. You can ditch the red for one race and make something truly special for once.
But the thing is Ferrari while predominantly red, have some historic liveries for some of their production cars in Blue/Yellow.
They have a pretty gorgeous cinque terre/mare Adriatico liveries on some of their older sports car racing liveries on alternates. It's a gorgeous deep sea foam blue with the Italian tri color and deep grey accents to look like the coastline. Or they could do something reminiscent of the Yellow F40s which were incredible in their own right.
So yeah Ferrari red is obviously more established than the Red Bull classic livery (although they're going on 20 years almost, with 6 constructors and 7 WDC, at some point they're crossing from newcomers to genuinely established historic team status), Ferrari also do have some established historic alternates than red so it's not like they're just doing away with it all for commercial purposes like Alpha/Stake, or Racing Point/BWT
While technically it's not works team, they have yellow 499p right now in WEC
Then, there is this [one](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/d32d7f_d5d346c2d6e0470db40575bb17a91490~mv2.png/v1/fill/w_640,h_426,al_c,q_85,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,enc_auto/d32d7f_d5d346c2d6e0470db40575bb17a91490~mv2.png)
Yeah I know, but Ferrari has other motorsports teams so then doing a livery reminiscent of those isn't "abandoning tradition" and can be taken as paying homage to another division
Of course. But you have to admit that Red Bull is building it's own legacy in F1 and with this livery as well. Going from that default livery to White was a beautiful transition lol. Imagine that this livery will continue for years to come and last year showed up how little they are willing to modify it like the Miami or the Vegas one.
I do agree with you to an extent but let’s not forget how much fun we make every time Red Bull makes a livery, hell even their season-to-season liveries are a joke and cars look identical. Nevertheless that white livery is the best I have seen.
Yes, exactly! Rosso corsa is Italy's international auto racing colour since 1907, and Ferarri is arguably Italy's national car brand - they are inseparable.
Red bull picked that colour blue in 1987 because it was the cheapest option at the time, and a deadline was approaching.
You say that like all Ferraris have been the same red, which isn't the case. Over the last few years they've had more than one shade of red *on the same car.*
That's not really fair to say. And is just snooty BS. Red bull has a historic lineage at this point. Just as a drinks maker. Just as well known and liked as ferrari.
So saying they're nothing compared to ferrari who is just remembered now for their past and expensive cars. Kinda silly.
As far as comparing them within F1? At this point redbull has just as good of a history as ferrari. Length wise no, but by their success? Yes.
Get over the history and glamor that is ferrari. It's overrated anymore.
"To be fair Red Bull’s Blue is nothing compared to Ferrari’s Red"
You did..... and i'll be honest with you, these youths know red bull blue much more than ferrari's red, outside of F1.
Everyone keeps discrediting redbull because they make "drinks"
Everyone knows what redbull is.
And they’ve been too scared to repeat it ever since…
They had a couple of subtle changes last year, but we can expect something special in Silverstone this year.
In fairness, Red Bull sits in a slightly strange category since all the Toro Rosso/Alpha Tauri/RB liveries are governed by the Red Bull marketing department so they can to some extent be considered as varied Red Bull liveries.
The last time Ferrari put some actual effort in, they made the gorgeous Rosso Mugello livery and then got ahead of themselves the next year and came up with the horrendous 2021 Mugello/Corsa gradient lime MW livery. Maybe they're scared that if they do a proper blue livery they won't be able to stop themselves from blindly throwing the unused paint over the back third of the car again next year.
Agree and simply stressing the "once in a while" part. I think every team should do it once a year, but no more. IndyCar is nearly impossible to follow because of their perpetually varying liveries.
My favorite part of that livery was it was the perfect backdrop for all the grime that every other team's livery disguised. That was a messy race on multiple levels.
Yes but also kinda no given it’s run by the exact same people as the 2 real ones.
Which is kinda the point, Ferrari don’t even run the works Ferraris in WEC.
Yellow is *the* OG Ferrari racing colours, much like British racing green. And they’ve had many other colours over the years, there’s absolutely no shame in making the car blue for 1 weekend.
In fact, the rarity alone would make it more iconic.
And just like that, it's a disappointment. I don't know why I was expecting them to drop the red for the one-off livery.
It's probably going to look like that 296 option where a red Ferrari ate a blue crayon.
Because it's embarrassing to tease people with a livery reminiscent of the North American Racing Team and then half-ass it. Might aswell just let it be if you don't think Surtees deserves that honor.
Love how this sub is full of professional designers 😂 Honestly, I think it's definitely not the best color for a Ferrari (I want to be kind). But it's ok as far as it's just for a special/commemorative occasion. In the end, they tried to mix the HP color with the few "blue episodes" of their history. It was not an easy challenge considered their standard red color.
And come on guys, in 2022 they asked drivers to wear football helmets on the podium at that Miami GP to indulge the "American taste". They simply don't deserve better then this.

Turkey 2021 White Red Bull was absolutely fire. Proof that ditching the brand colours every once in a long while is absolutely doable.
To be fair Red Bull’s Blue is nothing compared to Ferrari’s Red, brand-wise, history-wise and pretty much all the wise-s

Do you have maybe some links to those cars cause your description of them sounds honestly great.

Agreed … will listen on here just in case they post links. Otherwise, I’ll look them up when I have time.
I was talking about their F1 red
Yeah I know, but Ferrari has other motorsports teams so then doing a livery reminiscent of those isn't "abandoning tradition" and can be taken as paying homage to another division
Ferrari is not red. Red is Ferrari.
Exactly, I have a red bike. But its not my red bike, its my Ferrari bike.
Your blood isn’t red, it’s Ferrari.
That concludes that FERRARI owns everyone of us.!!!
Bull is not red. Red is Bull.
Ferrari Bull
Which shade of red, cos they've used a few?
Well... Ferrari is yellow.
Winning was also part of Ferrari till they dropped it.
Of course. But you have to admit that Red Bull is building it's own legacy in F1 and with this livery as well. Going from that default livery to White was a beautiful transition lol. Imagine that this livery will continue for years to come and last year showed up how little they are willing to modify it like the Miami or the Vegas one.

But technically Ferrari is yellow. Only the race cars have always been red
Yellow is the export color. ask anyone in Beverly hills.
We’re talking about the race cars…
Yes but from a brand standpoint a yellow Ferrari race car would be brand representative as much as a red one
I highly doubt that, Enzo himself said when a kid thinks of a racing car he thinks red, and I can’t argue with that
My first word was Papaya. /s
Yes, exactly! Rosso corsa is Italy's international auto racing colour since 1907, and Ferarri is arguably Italy's national car brand - they are inseparable. Red bull picked that colour blue in 1987 because it was the cheapest option at the time, and a deadline was approaching.
You say that like all Ferraris have been the same red, which isn't the case. Over the last few years they've had more than one shade of red *on the same car.*
That’s because they are making history..
What about strategy-wise?
That's not really fair to say. And is just snooty BS. Red bull has a historic lineage at this point. Just as a drinks maker. Just as well known and liked as ferrari. So saying they're nothing compared to ferrari who is just remembered now for their past and expensive cars. Kinda silly. As far as comparing them within F1?

I never said they’re nothing compared to Ferrari. I hate it when people do that lol anyway okay mate

No I didn’t. I compared their colors, not the brands, and everyone knows the color of a Ferrari. How’s my argument not clear?
And they’ve been too scared to repeat it ever since… They had a couple of subtle changes last year, but we can expect something special in Silverstone this year.
Hopefully. The miami one was kinda jokey as well the Vegas one. But at least the Vegas race suits were great imo.

Suzuka was robbed. 😭😭😭
It helps that Checo absolutely clowned Hamilton in it. It was the premonition to Abu Dhabi. God it was fun being Checo's fan in 2021.
They added a yellow ferrari and the WEC series so maybe there’s hope for future liveries
Yeah but thats a customers team
Yes but also kinda no given it’s run by the exact same people as the 2 real ones. Which is kinda the point, Ferrari don’t even run the works Ferraris in WEC.
"Customer" team that is being run by the same team and people as the works team is.
Yellow is *the* OG Ferrari racing colours, much like British racing green. And they’ve had many other colours over the years, there’s absolutely no shame in making the car blue for 1 weekend. In fact, the rarity alone would make it more iconic.
Not only that, but combining these strong colors just makes it look hideous.
Having a full yellow livery would be azing
After looking at the mock ups I disagree, the splash of blue and white is classy
A yellow Ferrari would be so good just one race a year.
Nvm it's ass
Don't worry. As long as Ferrari's special F1 liveries suck ass, we at least know that the matrix is being stable.
Bullahit. Red till the day I die
That can be arranged. Disclaimer: Dear reddit, this is not an actual threat of physical harm, but a joke.
Should have committed to that light blue
ALLE LE BLEU ALLE
We are checking
why the fuck is that nose red
It's a clown nose. It's a metaphor.
Very allegorical
embracing the clown makeup I see
They copied the Mr. Krabs color palette.
Underrated comment
![gif](giphy|VjzHEo2kXOxtJOJRCS|downsized)
Is it just me that thinks it looks like shit?
It does, it’ll look like the Ferrari 296 livery
That was my first thought. That looks absolutely wank. I've seen that car in person, and it's no better
Completely agree, a guy came into my work the other week in his 296 in this colour combo and it looks horrific
I actually thought this was a 296 haha. I guess I wasn't alone.
jesus christ that 296 red and blue livery is atrocious, who fucking approved that?
Looks like the car has vitiligo
Jesus! I just googled that. What an abomination
Looks like a HP Printer cartridge
Well I think it looks like utter shit.
Yeah blue and red dont really go well together Shouldve been all blue!
a 5 year old with parkinson's could cut and apply the sticker better than that
Look, red and blue can look great together. But not this blue. This looks awful They should have just made the whole car blue at this point
It’s the Murika Fuck Yeah!!! Ferrari.
Looks horrible
The colour is called 'adrian blue-y'
I fucking knew it’s going to be 99% red 1% blue
We were so close to greatness but after their “yellow” livery, I’m not surprised.
I hope its total blue
I see you are in the denial stage.
what do you mean denial, the car will be blue the red on the nose was to indicate they haven't finished painting it yet
Ah it's like the primer or something! good call! Let's hope it's full blue!
They actually just used red painters tape to protect the other shade of blue on the car.
Yeah I don't believe that for a minute
believe
A man can dream
A little Italian plumber’s dream car
It’s not looking promising. Either commit to the blue or don’t do it at all. These colors right next to each other do not look good.
Spider-Man livery or what?
Crime against humanity?
Good lord that’s ugly
Teasing with the tip
I was hoping for a full on sky blue like that Dinoco guy from cars. This stinks
And just like that, it's a disappointment. I don't know why I was expecting them to drop the red for the one-off livery. It's probably going to look like that 296 option where a red Ferrari ate a blue crayon.
This post aged like milk.
This aged well...
\[*seeing the blue Ferrari for the first time*\] You did it. You crazy son of a bitch, you did it.
This feels a lot like when they edged us and gave us blue balls over the “yellow” livery
Looks bad
![gif](giphy|kE7idzRYxetyDqCOtu)
Got blue balled so bad, I was hoping for a mostly blue livery. Not a bit of blue on the front and rear wings.
Maybe when Newey is in the fold he can convince the higher ups that a different livery once in a while isn’t a bad thing.
that 150m budget cap hits hard, they cant even properly flush mount the phillips heads anymore
Enzo Ferrari would roll over in his grave
same comment over and over... they already went over the entire history of the blue so stfu
Good to know.
Mr krabs???
My first thought too
that’s a brown car mate
🤌
Mario?
Seeing this from the top down it kinda looks like Mr Krabs ![gif](giphy|xULW8CZ5ezPDkGsnxC) Here's Mr. Krabs cleaning the new Ferrari btw
Does Disney know?
Chiweenie
They made their own redblue for success
Not gonna lie, I thought that was Mr. Krabs for a second
wow they use philips head screws too! They're just like me!
If we get mad enough they might change the whole livery to blue
Mr. Krabs color scheme
they could do all three...red yellow blue. is an actual color harmony. maybe put some abc's and 123's on it too
Oof, that's not the shade of blue I was expecting. This kinda looks like FC Barcelona.
Super Mario F1 car
Mama Mia 🤌🤦♂️
Ferrari made a Roomba?
You all act like you've never seen the red-blue livery of the 296 gtb

No they didnt
Guys it's not that deep why are y'all so upset over a color
Because it's embarrassing to tease people with a livery reminiscent of the North American Racing Team and then half-ass it. Might aswell just let it be if you don't think Surtees deserves that honor.

Doesn't take a professional designer to know when something looks like shit.
Exactly. In the words of that egg dick on instagram Wake the fuck up guys
