Azzurro La Plata

Azzurro La Plata is a historic shade of light blue finding its origins in racing as the national racing color of Argentina, worn by the likes of Alberto Ascari as he became Ferrari’s first Formula 1 world champion, winning the title in both 1952 and 1953. The Scuderia Ferrari's suits in the 60s were also in this color, both for the drivers and mechanics.

It's a color that was very well liked by Enzo Ferrari himself and thereby found its way onto the road going Ferrari's, still available today as a Tailor Made option albeit in a slightly modified version aptly called Nuovo Azzurro La Plata.

In 2024 the Scuderia Ferrari reintroduced the color for the Miami GP together with the slightly darker Azzurro Dino. Charles Leclerc's Formula 24 SF-1 will be wearing a unique Azzurro La Plata livery while Carlos Sainz' F1 car will be wearing Azzurro Dino. Both drivers also had a 296 GTS with a livery matching their racecar to drive around Miami over the weekend.
Both colors will undoubtedly get a popularity boost by this in the spec room with future owners.
