On 5 May 2024 at the Miami International Autodrome, Scuderia Ferrari rolled out a revised car that collectors had been waiting to see on track: the SF-24 wearing the HP Inc. title-sponsorship livery for the very first time. Carlos Sainz qualified third and converted that into a competitive run at Round 6, crossing the finish line in fourth before a 5-second penalty for contact with Oscar Piastri dropped him to fifth in the final classification. His team-mate Charles Leclerc took third, giving Ferrari a podium on the day Lando Norris secured his maiden Formula 1 victory.
The Ferrari SF-24: 2024 Scuderia Ferrari HP Challenger
The SF-24 is powered by Ferrari's 1.6-litre turbo-hybrid V6 power unit and was developed as Ferrari's title contender for the 2024 Formula 1 season. From the Miami round onward, the car carried revised branding under the new team identity Scuderia Ferrari HP, reflecting the partnership with HP Inc. that came into effect at Round 6. Sainz drove car No. 55 throughout the entire 2024 campaign.
Miami 2024: The Race That Launched a New Identity
The 2024 Crypto.com Miami Grand Prix was more than a points-scoring exercise for Ferrari. It was the public debut of the Scuderia Ferrari HP colour scheme — a livery revision that distinguishes every SF-24 raced from Miami onwards from the earlier 2024 specification. Sainz's fifth-place finish arrived with a layer of drama: classified fourth on the road, he was penalised five seconds for an incident with Piastri, relegating him one position. The race is now permanently associated with Norris's breakthrough win, and the Ferrari No. 55 was part of that historically significant grid.
