The Scuderia Ferrari F1-75 has already made an impression on everyone. But above all, the new single-seater will assume crucial importance in the history of the Maranello team, as very high hopes and expectations are placed on it.
Two days ago, the new Ferrari F1-75 ran for the first few kilometers at Fiorano in front of a small audience of fans who came to see it live. This is the result of the great enthusiasm it has generated among fans ever since its presentation on February 17. Regardless of how things go, the expectations are high for the F1-75 ahead of the 2022 Formula One season.
Maybe these high hopes are also the result of the lack of victories. In fact, the Maranello team has not won the Drivers ‘World Championship since 2007 and the Constructors’ World Championship since 2008.
There are six years left until Ferrari reaches the time that passed between the title of Jody Scheckter in 1979 and that of Michael Schumacher in 2000. But the fans of the Maranello team cannot tolerate having to wait even one more year.
Scuderia Ferrari tried in every way possible to find an heir to Kimi Räikkönen, trying to identify him first in Fernando Alonso and then in Sebastian Vettel. Even these two world champions faced many difficulties during and even after the experience in Maranello.

After periods not so rosy, the policy of the team, therefore, has changed. Focus on young people to build a strong and winning future. The big names, which have now become the youngest line-up in the paddock, are those of Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz.
The talent of the Monegasque has never been questioned. However, the great misfortune and a car that was not always consistent, brought him very few joys on the track. Last year in his first season in Red, the Spaniard finished fifth in the drivers’ standings. This is to underline what the two drivers can do with a competitive car that may prove to be so already at the beginning of the year.
This is why the Barcelona tests will already be decisive for the Prancing Horse.
After the 2020 nightmare, the SF21 has shown how the main flaws of the disastrous predecessor have been corrected. A lot of work and many tests were also carried out in 2021 during the championship, but now the moment of truth is about to arrive.
Barcelona will already show whether the new Red car will live up to its expectations.
Because if the looks of Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz will continue to be like those we saw at the presentation of the F1-75 car, with both drivers visibly already in love with the car, it will mean that Ferrari is finally be back.
