Indeed, after announcing their decision to reintroduce two shades of blue as part of a special livery for the Miami Grand Prix, Ferrari has now solidified a “historic” multi-year title partnership with HP.
This collaboration will also incorporate the US tech giants into the team’s name going forward. The sponsorship deal will be formally revealed before the Miami weekend, coinciding with the debut of the unique livery, which pays homage to the team’s entry into the American market 70 years ago.
Benedetto Vigna, the CEO of Ferrari, expressed, “Our founder instilled in us a relentless pursuit of advancement. This drives our innovation both on the roads and the racetrack, alongside our dedication to a sustainable future, encompassing carbon neutrality and nurturing the next generation through education.
In HP, we see a reflection of these values, making them an ideal partner. We eagerly anticipate commencing our collaboration, embracing new opportunities, and confronting challenges together.”
Fernando Alonso commented on the dynamics at Aston Martin involving Lance Stroll.
With Aston Martin team principal Mike Krack acknowledging in China that the focus of the “whole project” has revolved around Lance Stroll to some extent, Fernando Alonso discussed how he and Stroll collaborate for the team’s benefit.
“We, Lance and myself, are both striving to support the team to the best of our abilities,” he remarked. “We possess distinct driving styles and perceptions of the car under certain conditions.
“Lance tends to be more attuned to nuances than I am, which is highly beneficial for the team. His analytical approach and feedback are pivotal for our progress and car development.
“Hence, although we may reach the same conclusions, our paths to them may differ. I believe these divergent styles are advantageous for Aston Martin.”
