A few days ago, Alfa Romeo rang in Valentines Day with a striking black livery with red outlines. However, it was not an official launch and they were only performing a shakedown. Fast-forward to four days later and the fans were pumped to see the new car unveiled by Kimi Raikkonen and Antonio Giovinazzi.

But then, the actual livery was revealed earlier today and… it was a big letdown. The 2019 car was given the ‘If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’ treatment, albeit with a few minor cosmetic changes.
The actual racing livery largely resembles the 2018 livery and the fans were none too pleased with the outcome.

Great but preferred the launch livery! #F1
The show version was so much more unique.

As expected, would prefer something red.
