Ferrari has officially launched its 2015 Formula 1 challenger - the SF15-T.
The Maranello-based outfit's new car was unveiled online on Friday morning, with images and videos being released.
The SF15-T will be driven by Kimi Raikkonen and Sebastian Vettel this season, with the four-time champion replacing Fernando Alonso.
The car features a lower nose similar to the design of the recently-launched McLaren MP4-30.
"I said a long time ago the best car is the winning car," said Ferrari team principal Mauricio Arrivabene.
"Last year we had an ugly car and it was a non-winning car. On top of this, I like the car of this year in terms of aesthetics. I don’t know about performance, but it looks really sexy."
Ferrari suffered a difficult 2014 season, finishing fourth in the standings after its first win-less season since 1993.
A number of high-profile management changes have been made ahead of the new season, in a bid to return to the front of the field.

Sauber unveiled the C34 online earlier in the day, revealing a striking new livery.
Due to new sponsor Banco do Brasil, the Swiss outfit has switched to a blue and yellow colour scheme for this season.
Marcus Ericsson and Felipe Nasr will race for the team in 2015, with Raffaele Marciello joining as its reserve driver.
A roll-out version of the Ferrari-powered car will be used at the first pre-season test in Jerez, which kicks off on the 1 February.
