The striking one-off look, featuring gold ascents and highlights on an Italian flag tricolore that adorns the engine cover, will be used throughout the Monza weekend by Alfa Romeo duo Valtteri Bottas and Zhou Guanyu.
The Sauber-run squad, which has run a handful of sponsor-led livery tweaks this year, will end its F1 partnership with Alfa Romeo at the conclusion of the 2023 season – the Italian GP effectively marking the alliance’s last home race.
To celebrate the occasion, the team has opted to pay tribute to the launch of Alfa Romeo’s latest car, the 33 Stradale, which was launched at the Alfa Romeo Museum near Milan – 56 years on from the original launch of the car.
“As we approach our home race in Monza, it’s a pleasure to unveil this incredible livery, a true tribute not only to the 33 Stradale, but to Alfa Romeo as a whole and to the country it hails from, Italy,” Sauber boss Alessandro Alunni Bravi said.
