Two historic Made in Italy brands will race together throughout 2016. Riva, the most prestigious brand in the Italian and world nautical sector, has in fact become the team's official sponsor Ferrari in the 2016 world championship. The single-seaters of the prancing horse, communicates the Ferretti group, which owns the brand, "will race together for the first time on all the motor racing circuits where the 21 grands prix on the calendar will be held".
The sponsorship was made official at Maranello, where the new SF19-H single-seater was presented on 16 February, which will take part in this year's Formula 1 world championship. The Riva logo, with its aquamarine background, will be present on the helmets of the team's two drivers: Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Raikkonen.
“A nautical legend – he says Alberto Galassi, CEO of the Ferretti group – meet the most legendary of the Formula 1 teams, giving life to an unrivaled combination. A myth that meets another myth, together in the circuits and on the seas of the whole world. We are truly proud to write a new chapter in the glorious history of Riva together with Ferrari by renewing a collaboration that in the past has produced masterpieces of the sea".
