Ferrari announces Miami F1 livery change to mark US anniversary
The Scuderia is preparing to reveal a unique design for the Miami Grand Prix, paying homage to the manufacturer’s heritage in a modern way, incorporating two historical shades of blue: Azzurro La Plata and Azzurro Dino. This change is intended to honor Ferrari’s historical significance in American motorsport, coinciding with the company’s 70th anniversary in the US marketplace. Previous milestones in this relationship include a special US white and blue livery introduced in 1964 for the final races of that season. Azzurro La Plata, a light blue shade and Argentina’s national racing color, has ties to racing legends like Alberto Ascari and Ferrari drivers of the 1960s like John Surtees and Chris Amon. Meanwhile, Azzurro Dino, a darker hue last seen in 1974 on Clay Regazzoni’s race suit, will also feature in the new design. The unveiling of this special livery will take place directly in Florida, coinciding with a series of events celebrating Ferrari’s legacy from April 28 leading up to the Miami Grand Prix, where blue 296 GTS models will lead a Ferrari parade. Last year’s special liveries for the Italian Grand Prix and the Tuscan Grand Prix at Mugello showcased Ferrari’s tradition of honoring historic achievements through unique designs.
