Micro Note IN Miami
Strategic Recap & Key Tips
Ferrari and PUMA are capitalizing on the power of storytelling, nostalgia, and exclusivity to spark global engagement and desire around the Miami Grand Prix. The white suit’s comeback not only revives the legacy of icons like Scheckter, Villeneuve, and Schumacher, but—paired with PUMA’s ultra-limited collection—positions Ferrari as a leader at the intersection of fashion, sport, and experiential marketing.

The white suit and the PUMA collection show how reinterpreting legacy can drive global buzz and rejuvenate a brand.

PUMA: From racetrack to runway, exclusivity to worldwide desire.

PUMA, Ferrari’s strategic partner, launches an F1 line inspired by the “clean” white of the 2025 car and the aesthetics of soccer’s “away” kits. The “White Miami Limited Edition” features the racing suit, gloves, Speedcat Pro footwear, and streetwear—all ultra-limited drops.
From Scheckter to Hamilton: White as the Color of Reinvention
Wearing white at Ferrari is more than just a style choice—it’s a nod to heritage and a symbol of innovation. From Jody Scheckter and Gilles Villeneuve in ‘79, to Schumacher in the ‘90s, to Leclerc in Monaco and now Hamilton and Leclerc in Miami, white is Ferrari’s color of breakthrough, victory, and experimentation.
Ferrari has previously released limited editions—sky blue, yellow, black—across the US and other races, always paired (crossing) with limited-edition cars, apparel, collectibles, and events.
