Ferrari unveiled the car with which it aims to contend for this year’s Formula 1 championship. The iconic marque presented its 2023 package, the SF-23, during an outdoor ceremony at its Maranello base on Tuesday. The ceremony opened with a violinist playing the national anthem while the crowd in attendance on a gorgeously sunny morning cheered a mere mention of antipasti by Carlos Sainz.
Sainz’s teammate, Charles Leclerc, then completed a couple of laps of its Fiorano test facility—waving to the fans and joking with Sainz over the team radio—as part of a first public demonstration of the SF-23. Music, food appreciation, and a racing car in action on a sunny day—could it be any more Italian?
