While the new Ferrari livery has been referenced as being a nod to past designs, you may be struggling to pinpoint the last time so much white was used. The 312T which took Niki Lauda to the world championship in 1975 might spring to mind, but it is the 1993 F93A - being driven here by Gerhard Berger at Spa - which last featured the prominent white section around the cockpit and engine cover.
