Ferrari boys show off new 2022 team kit

A dashing Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz flaunted their new 2022 Ferrari team kit and by the reaction from the Scuderia's fans on social media, the pair looked dressed to kill!

The stylish red and black team shirt, adorned with a personal stripe – white for Charles, yellow for Carlos – that referenced each driver's national colors, also likely hints to the livery of Ferrari's 2022 contender.

But the Scuderia's fans and Italy's tifosi will need to wait until February 17, when the Italian outfit unveils its F1-75, to find out their favourite team's true colors.

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
