The Ferrari SF-23 (also known by its internal name, Project 675)[2] is a Formula One racing car designed and constructed by Scuderia Ferrari that competed in the 2023 Formula One World Championship.

Design and development
[edit]
On 22 December 2022, Ferrari announced that the car would be launched on 14 February 2023.[3][4] The car was revealed as SF-23 on 7 February 2023, a week before the official launch.[5]
Ferrari started the year with an evolution of its 2022 design. However it soon became clear that Ferrari's initial "bathtub style" [6] sidepod aerodynamic concept had started to plateau in terms of its performance and at the Spanish Grand Prix, a major upgrade was introduce changing to sidepods to incorporate a downwash ramp design similar to Red Bull.[citation needed]
As the year progressed Ferrari gain a better understanding of their car with bespoke Monza upgrades improving its pace allowing it to claim pole position and a race win in Singapore.[citation needed]
Special livery

During the Las Vegas Grand Prix, Ferrari unveiled a special livery in a nod to the first "golden age" of the sport in the USA where the Scuderia enjoyed some of the most successful moments in its history.[citation needed]
Later use
