Alfa Romeo goes for bold shakedown livery in Fiorano!

Alfa Romeo Racing rolled out its 2019 car for a 100 km shakedown run at Fiorano today, Ferrari private test track.

Kimi Raikkonen was entrusted with the first laps of a car all draped out in a spectacular Quadrifiglio shamrok and hearts test livery.

Of particular interest is the Alfa Romeo's front wing concept, where it appears as if a whole section is missing on each end of the aerodynamic element.

A clever take on creating outwash?

We'll likely see next week when the team's 2019 charger is officially be unveiled in the Circuit de Catalunya's pitlane in Barcelona on Monday morning on the first day of pre-season testing.

Check out the pictures in our gallery.
