When the workers at Ferrari started the day, they must’ve been quite optimistic, eagerly waiting to show their fans their challenger for the 2021 season. They would’ve expected to start their season off on a positive note; unfortunately, for the Italian team, the reactions to their car and its launch were anything but positive.

Firstly, to take all the excitement and thrill away from the launch, the 2021 Ferrari car was leaked online. This the second time a car has been leaked, the first one being with Williams. The world wasn’t kind to the Italians and made fun of them due to this blunder.

Then, Twitter was quick to drag the team through mud because of their new livery. While some love it others hate the design of Ferrari’s new title challenger.
