The Ferrari SF16-H is a Formula One racing car[1] which Ferrari is using to compete in the 2016 Formula One season. It is being driven by Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Räikkönen. The SF16-H was launched on 19 February 2016.[2] The letter "H" in the name of the car stands for "Hybrid", describing the shortened nose and better tapered rear packaging compared to its predecessor, the SF15-T.[1]
The SF16-H is notable for its predominantly red and white livery, similar to that used on the 312T and F93A.
In accordance with his habit of giving his cars female nicknames, Vettel dubbed his SF16-H "Margherita", in reference to Margherita of Savoy, the Queen consort of the Kingdom of Italy from 1878–1900.[3]
