Scuderia Ferrari launches SF1000 at a glittering ceremony
Maranello, 11 Feb 2020: Scuderia Ferrari became the first F1 team to launch its car this year as it launched SF1000, the Formula 1 car it will race this year at the historic Romolo Valli Municipal Theatre, in the city of Reggio Emilia on Tuesday. The curtain went up at 18.30 on Tuesday 11 February, while millions of fans followed the presentation live, as it streamed on the Scuderia’s digital platforms including Facebook. Both the Ferrari drivers Sebastian Vettel and Charles Leclerc were present.
“We have chosen Reggio Emilia, because 223 years ago, this city was where the tricolour was born and later adopted as the flag of unified Italy. The Valli Theatre is therefore the perfect setting to reveal Scuderia Ferrari’s latest car,” a Ferrari statement said.
The car produced in Maranello, will make its official track debut in the hands of Sebastian Vettel and Charles Leclerc at the first pre-season test, in the week following the launch, at the Barcelona-Catalunya Circuit in Montmelo, Spain.
