Ferrari launch SF21 after latest F1 hack - first images

Ferrari has launched the SF21 just two days before the start of Formula 1 pre-season testing in Bahrain.

The Scuderia, however, was compromised in the build-up to the unveiling as images and the entire launch video itself were hacked. Williams and Aston Martin were also subject to leaks.

The team will be hoping that is not a portent for things to come as it seeks to erase the memory of its worst campaign for 40 years last season when it finished sixth in the constructors' standings.

The season was hampered by a woefully underperforming power unit, something the team purports to have fixed.

Charles Leclerc remains at the team for a third year but this season he is joined by Carlos Sainz following the Spaniard's move to Maranello after a two-year stint at McLaren.

Ferrari, who held a launch event for the team at the end of February, is the final team to reveal its 2021 colours - although Haas is yet to lift the covers of the VF-21 despite revealing its new livery.

GPFans has compiled a gallery of images from the Ferrari SF21 launch.
