Ferrari unveils a special livery for the United States Grand Prix at Austin, created with HP. The blueprint-themed artwork aims to showcase the design path underpinning its current F1 challenger.

The scheme places blueprint sketches on the engine cover and around the air intake, set on a white base. Ferrari frames it as a tribute to engineering craft.

Head of color and trim Silvia Cavallaro says the design celebrates the journey from concept sketches to track performance, drawing attention to the work long preceding race day.

Collaboration with HP enables HP Latex printing of complex imagery on curved surfaces without measurable aerodynamic penalty. The process prioritises fidelity, adhesion, and installation tolerances under parc fermé constraints.

Car concept specialist Stefano Luparia details challenges mapping flat blueprint graphics onto compound curves while preserving body part join lines and serviceability for the Austin weekend.

Ferrari and HP validated novel application methods not previously used on an F1 car. Luparia signed off tolerances to ensure durability at speed and heat, and regulatory compliance.

Graphics printed with HP Latex technology to conform to complex bodywork without sacrificing aerodynamic performance.

Fan response skews positive, accepting potential loss of legibility at speed. The aesthetic still resonates, and collectors expect the livery to translate well to diecasts.

Blueprint detailing features prominently on the engine cover and air intake over a white base.

The move fits a wider trend of event-specific liveries designed to cut through a busy calendar. Partnerships increasingly shape visual identity and execution, on and off the car.

Competitive impact is limited, yet presentation matters in the U.S. market. For Austin, tyre choices and conditions will steer stint lengths and warm-up priorities.

Ferrari’s visual push runs alongside ongoing development work for Austin, tying creativity to performance aims and fan engagement.

Stefano Luparia oversaw and approved technical details to ensure race-weekend readiness in Austin.
