Ferrari's New Hope Named SF-23
JAKARTA - Scuderia Ferrari officially released their new car for the 2023 Formula One (F1) race. The latest car with the name SF-23 was introduced first in Maranello, Italy, Tuesday, February 14.
This land jet is Ferrari's new hope for stopping the dominance of Red Bull Racing.
"There is a big responsibility for the team to succeed in this and everything is going well. We are giving a hard effort for this project, and we are proud of what the team has done this season to improve performance through SF-23," said Ferrari Principal Scuderia Team Frederic Vasseur, as reported by Antara.
The SF-23 builds on the progress the team made with F1-75 last year, which won four races and secured 12 pole positions. That's what led Vasseur to call himself very optimistic about the 2023 season.
According to him, the team has everything it takes to be able to win the competition, both in terms of technical teams, riders, and cars.
"We are ready for this season with new updates in this car compared to the 2022 model," said Vasseur.
Ferrari's new car looks majestic and brave in red, the color that characterizes the team. The appearance of this new Ferrari vehicle also received praise from Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc.
"The show was very bold and cool. There was a different driving impression when we were behind the wheel," said Sainz.
"The car has a lot of power, and it feels really good when driving it... This launch also feels really special, because it was launched at Maranello with the fans. It feels good to be able to see fans with their spirits," added Leclerc.
