Ferrari have launched their new car:



Personally am not a fan of the split livery and prefer my Ferrari's all red. Nose looks pretty good though.

Alfa logos on the sides???

I personally like the red/black split, but a better scheme would be a fully red body with black wings, similar the Ferraris of the late '80s

Yay! A car with colour!

It looks good,but I don't like the use of the Alfa logo. Fiat on the car was fine as they were the parent company with corporate activities stretching beyond the Fiat car brand(and even after the partial flotation, Fiat are still a major shareholder) but, maybe because Alfa has such a strong heritage in motorsport, it seems a little odd to mix the brands.

It would be a little like the Audi at Le mans carrying Skoda and Seat logos. Yes, we all know it is the same company, but companies invest heavily to try to create different brand identities and not mix them.

its a nice touch if you ask me, maybe neither company would exist if it wasn't for each other and its about time fiat group started to help Alfa out.

for anyone that isnt aware of Alfa/ferrari history the below link is a good read:

They've even named the car after him - the Single Finger 15-Twit. smile

It's a touch inspired by platypus at the front there isn't it.

Much preferred last year's nose. This one reminds me of my friend Drew Peacock.

I like the front profile of the nose for some reason it reminds me of the shark nose from the 60's. Not sure why though confused
