The Ferrari team will present its new single-seater for the 2022 Formula 1 season on February 17 from 2:00 p.m. in Spanish peninsular time, and before revealing the final appearance of the F1-75, the team published a small video on the that its two drivers were seeing the car for the first time.
Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc, equipped with the official clothing that they will wear throughout this exciting course, visited the Maranello factory to see with their own eyes the machine with which they will try to return Ferrari to the top.
After greeting several employees of the Cavallino, the Spaniard and the Monegasque were speechless when they saw the new single-seater. The F1-75 is expected, as is tradition, to have a large predominance of red, although it is possible that they contain black tones, as seen in their clothing line.
“Mamma mia!” Charles Leclerc exclaimed in perfect Italian. “This is unbelievable,” the 24-year-old continued. Sainz, for his part, fixed his gaze on the details of what will be his ninth car in the category, at the same time that he spoke with the team’s bosses.
Ferrari will present the F1-75 at noon on Thursday, but has already given some hints about what to expect from it. A few days ago, those from Maranello published another video in which the roar of their engine could be heard, which has been updated to try to recover lost ground with respect to Mercedes and Honda .
In 2019, the Italians saw how Formula 1 discovered irregularities in their power unit, and that weighed them down for the next course, where they could only be sixth and did not achieve any victory.
With an improved version of its powertrain from the Russian Grand Prix , Ferrari reached third place in the constructors’ standings in 2021, climbing to the podium several times, although victory escaped. The closest they came was at Silverstone, but Leclerc succumbed to Lewis Hamilton in the closing laps.
