Ferrari Unveils Blueprint Livery for Austin

Ferrari unveiled a blueprint-inspired livery for both Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton at the United States Grand Prix, Formula 1 reported October 21. The design was developed with title partner HP for the Austin race weekend.

The graphics incorporate sketches, technical drawings and engineering details to recognize the designers, engineers and technicians behind the cars. HP said its printing and vehicle-wrapping work translated Ferrari’s concept across the bodywork.

There are two versions with different purposes. The race cars use graphics reproduced with HP Latex technology. A dedicated display car features hidden graphics that fluoresce blue under ultraviolet light, according to HP’s separate October 21 announcement. That display treatment should not be confused with the finish described for the cars competing on track.

The project brought Ferrari personnel in Maranello together with HP engineers in Barcelona for testing and refinement. HP said workstations supported design preparation before physical production, while its teams adapted materials and application methods for the final result.
