It's ugly. A shame. There hasn't been a decent looking Ferrari since the 412T2.

Oh c'mon, it's not dreadful. Not as good as last year but not dreadful. Besides, this might not be the final livery, they might tweek it for the presentation and actual model.


Offcourse I appreciate that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. But in my opinion calling it "not dreadfull" is olympic grade flattery. It looks lego-ish.

I hope you're right. LDM has said in the past that sponsors don't control how the Ferrari livery looks in terms of logos etc, and I hope he meant that. Red and black livery I could live with, but red and white is just not a visually pleasing combination. Hopefully it will look different/better when they pull the covers off the car next week.


they are pretty much returning to the livery they ran from 2000-2006 so its not that radical

As tested by Schumacher in late 1995 in Estoril. He said it was good enough he could've won a championship with it.

The 412 T1 was prettier.

Pardon my failing eyes, but at what point did Ferrari move away from that gorgeous dark metallic red that debuted at Monaco in 2007? THAT was the prettiest of the recent Ferraris.

they used it in 07 & 08 I believe but dropped it in 09. The f2007 did look beautiful in that red though, especially with marlboro branding

This livery is the final 2010 livery.
Contrary to what some suggest, Ferrari will certainly not go about doing an interim design to be used just for an ad.

Here is a comparaison between the new livery (up) and the 2009 livery (bottom).

Really not impressed with the new livery, waayy to much Santander,...


Anyone still thinking Santander money had nothing to do with Kimi being dumped? wave.gif
If Santander would have been a blue and brown logo, you'd have seen blue and brown ferrari's trust me.

Have to say I loved the 2007 evolution F1 cars. Both the Ferrari and the McLaren were things of beauty. They looked like futuristic racecars, the way F1 always should look. It's such a shame that the design restrictions were brought in. The current iteration of F1 cars are so ugly. And that's why the livery is so much more important now.

Interesting to see the sides of the front wing with no sponsor at all, just an Italian flag.
Talryyn
The front and rear wings are different, so is that just a late '09 wing, or are they running '10 wings on the car?

Is santander paying Philip Morris to use all that space ?



No! They are paying Ferrari. The whole Morris having the rights to ALL of Ferrari's livery is bs!
fabr68
I thought that Philip Morris was not allowed to put a logo of his product due to regulations in Europe.

I also thought that the new livery looks very similar (red+white) to the package of Philip Morris' product.

No this are '09 wings, for sure.

Strange, there is space enough for a Santander logo on the sidepod along with Shell, but they put it above the barge bord where it didn't look so well..

Alice is disappeard indeed.

New Ferrari scheme is major graphics failure...I can't believe they've taken this retrograde step mad.gif
New race suits are clownish as well....

QUOTE
Those barge boards were always there.
The were painted in dark color


Exactely...dark (or body color) appendages hide these elements and intergrate them into the whole...The white barge boards really look terrible...

Congrats. You've just provided the evidence of why Philip Morris continues to sponsor the team. Subliminal association complete. Now light up and puff away.

All those logos on the side of the nose looks horrible. Even moreso now that the barge board is white again.

I give the livery a solid B. If they want an A, there's a few things they could do:
1) Make the entire front wing white, not just the inside bits.
2) Drop Malboro and the barcode design. As Martin Brundle once pointed out, it makes them look like a GP2 team. Replace it with Santander, even if they are becoming the resident Omni Consumer Products of Formula 1.
3) Put some numbers on the car! I hate having to try and identify which car is which based on the camera mounting and the driver's helmet.
4) A nice white band around the engine cowling and cockpit like the 1993 car wouldn't go amiss.
DaleCooper
That is one ugly car, livery and all.

I preferred the black wings on the car in the 80's and early 90's, that was very nice. Or the silver wings in the 70's and early 80's. But this white stuff is awful.

The Ferrari's looked better even a couple years ago, can't they figure out something more interesting?

The font that theyve been using for their numbers is quite ugly too.

Yeah, but numbers on the rear wing is something that I think should be mandatory. Like I said, sometimes it's impossible to tell who is who on the basis of the camera mounting and helmet.

I think the '87 scheme was the best. Black wings, red body, large numbers.
