In a few weeks, it will already be 2024 and exciting times are fast approaching for Formula 1 teams: one by one, they are presenting their cars for the new season. Last season, Haas were the first to present the new car to the world. Will it be Ferrari in 2024?

It has been leaked via the Italian branch of Motorsport.com that the Scuderia plan to hold their presentation on Tuesday, 13 February. The venue will again be the Fiorano Circuit. Ferrari also showed the car on track for the first time last season.

It is planned that Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc, immediately after the presentation and conversation with the media, will give the 676 (the name of the new racing car) a drive on track. This happens during a so-called filming day, which teams have annually to use the car for commercial matters. In this case, there is also the opportunity to test the 676 directly and thus see if everything works as it should.

Incidentally, there is a small change in the regulations, effective from 2024. From now on, teams can drive 200 kilometres during filming days. In the past, this was limited to 100 kilometres.
