The Ferrari F1-75 (also known by its internal name, Project 674)[2] is a Formula One racing car designed and constructed by Scuderia Ferrari which competed in the 2022 Formula One World Championship.[3] Although not officially credited, South African engineer Rory Byrne was heavily involved in the design of the F1-75. As the car proved successful in the first part of the season, his contract was renewed for three years.[4]
The car was driven by Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz Jr. The chassis is Ferrari's first single seater under the 2022 FIA Technical Regulations.[5] The F1-75 scored four wins, from the Bahrain, the Australian, the British, and the Austrian Grands Prix, and 20 podiums from its 22 races. The car made its competitive debut at the 2022 Bahrain Grand Prix.
Competition and development history

The name refers to the 75th anniversary since the first Ferrari production car rolled out of the factory in Maranello.[6] The F1-75 was used in a tyre test following the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix and was investigated after it appeared to have been run with a new floor specification that had not been previously used. The FIA ruled that the floor had been previously used during pre-season testing and was, therefore, compliant with the regulations.[7]
Compared to the winless
Despite being competitive in the first half of the season, the F1-75 suffered from porpoising and poor engine reliability; to address that, Ferrari downtuned the engines at the 2022 Belgian Grand Prix.[8][9] The porpoising was addressed by FIA's Technical Directive 39 which took effect at the same race. Reports emerged that the Technical Directive caused the F1-75 to suffer increased tyre wear in subsequent races.[10]
In November 2022, Mattia Binotto stated that Ferrari could not afford to upgrade the car due to them having hit the cost cap,[11] which further contributed to the car's downturn in competitiveness in the second half of the season.
