Yep going to be in HP blue.

The press pictures with the HP logo everywhere aren't great. I guess as a sponsor it's good your logo sticks out so much.

Reminds me of the 641 with the blue Fiat logo on the engine cover.

It's a photoshop. It's alright but if it did end up being that think I'd be disappointed.

The colour corrected normal livery looks better tbh

I like that

It also has an early-2000s Williams-BMW vibe smile

Presumably a nod to this but missing the mark a bit

That was my first thought.

I'm not the biggest fan of Ferrari in F1, but the traditional red has a real visual impact. They need to find a way to retain that 'wow' factor, but in blue.

With the rectangular Ferrari badges and the lighter blue, it all points towards a re-creation of Surtees' car at Watkins Glen and Mexico in 1964. There shouldn't be any red.

Pity Surtees isn't around to see it.

Those old Hillmans are getting quite collectable.

They were Californians wink

Indeed they were.

I still think the livery will be mainly red. And don’t they use wraps rather than paint these days, for the weight saving?

They've just shared this on the Ferrari Facebook page

Coincidence?

I think that it is connected. There are other videos on Ferrari's social media showing Leclerc and Sainz being shown mock ups of the 296 GTB cars they will drive in Miami (presumably in the Hot Laps sessions) and it mentions that they will be in 2 different shades of blue.
