The Ferrari SF-24 (also known by its internal name, Project 676)[2] is a Formula One racing car designed and constructed by Scuderia Ferrari for the 2024 Formula One World Championship. It has currently been driven by Carlos Sainz Jr. and Charles Leclerc, with reserve driver Oliver Bearman replacing Sainz for the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix due to the former needing emergency surgery for appendicitis.[3]

The SF-24 secured its first victory with a returning Sainz in the following Australian Grand Prix, with his teammate Leclerc finishing behind him for a 1-2 finish. After the team gained a title sponsor in computer company HP in the run-up to the Miami Grand Prix, the SF-24 secured its second victory with Leclerc winning the Monaco Grand Prix.
