In a season dominated by Max Verstappen with Red Bull-Honda, Ferrari had to settle for back-up positions, despite the efforts of Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz jr. The House of the Prancing Horse finished the constructors' championship in third place with 406 points, behind RedBull-Honda (860) and Mercedes (409). Leclerc finished fifth in the drivers' championship while Sainz finished in seventh place.
At the Italian GP in Monza the livery of the SF-23s had a touch of yellow, one of the historical colors of the company already protagonist on the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the foundation of Ferrari. A reference has been made to the bodywork of the 499P that won the most famous endurance race in the world, namely the yellow "V"-shaped band that crosses the bodywork of the Hypercar. This reference, present on the nose and on the bonnet, has linked the two cars even more closely, as they already share a key element, the Le Mans Red livery, which is in a matt version on the SF-23, while it is glossy on the 499P. The race numbers, 16 and 55, are also in yellow on the two single-seaters, while the overalls of Leclerc and Sainz, made especially for the occasion, have the traditional colors of the Maranello company - in addition to red, yellow and black – together with the “long F” logo already applied on the rear wing.
Mario Besana, who had already founded Mebetoys and Martoys, began producing model cars under the Bburago brand in Burago di Molgora near Milan in 1976. The first models were in 1:24 but Burago also tried other avenues, such as Formula 1 in 1:14, classic sports cars in 1:18, also reaching the 1:43 sector with products that were always very affordable. Burago production between the end of the '70s and throughout the '80s was exterminated: with models that marked an era (just think of the Ferrari 250 TR or the F40, both in 1:18), and which have remained in the memory of at least two generations of collectors and enthusiasts. In the 1990s the company lost its dominant position on the 1:18 model market and in 2005 it painfully closed. Shortly afterwards Burago was taken over by competitor Maisto. Now in China, under the name Bburago, a wide range of die-cast models in various scales continues to be produced. Since 2015, Bburago has held the license for the diecast production of contemporary Ferraris.
