Race and classic pictures

All suited and ready to paint the town red!

The Scuderia’s stylists have spoken, and they have outdone themselves!

Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz have traded their red and black attire for a head-turning all-scarlet design that screams speed, passion, and, let's not forget, victory.

The only contrast you'll find is a whisper of yellow and white pizazz, a subtle nod to sponsors and perhaps a hint of champagne to come. Because let's face it, these suits were practically designed to be doused in bubbly.

So let’s hope these spiffy new overalls see their fair share of wins this season and become the hottest fashion trend on the podium!

Forza Ferrari!

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.
