Ferrari go into this weekend’s Tuscan Grand Prix, an event created to celebrate the team’s 1,000th Formula One race, denying they are in crisis and hoping an expected switch to a dark red retro livery will lift the spirits, deliver some points and ensure a party to remember.
After two disappointing and pointless races at Spa-Francorchamps and Monza, the sport’s first visit to the beautiful Ferrari-owned Mugello circuit in the rolling Tuscan hills marks the team’s achievement in being the first to enter 1,000 World Championship Grands Prix.
