Scuderia Ferrari was founded in 1929 by Enzo Ferrari as a division within the Ferrari automobile company. Originally, Scuderia Ferrari was created to field drivers in races for Alfa Romeo, as Ferrari himself was involved in the development and management of racing cars. Initially, Scuderia Ferrari was a team competing in endurance and sports car races, but the team's transition to Formula 1 came in 1950 when the inaugural Formula 1 World Championship was created.

Ferrari’s first Formula 1 entry was in the 1950 Monaco Grand Prix, where the team made its debut in F1 under the management of Enzo Ferrari. Ferrari quickly became one of the most respected and established teams in the sport. The team’s competitive edge came from its combination of skilled drivers, innovative engineering, and a strong desire for victory.

The 1970s were a pivotal decade for Scuderia Ferrari, with both tragic and triumphant moments. The team gained another legendary figure in Niki Lauda, who joined Ferrari in 1974. Lauda’s tenure at Ferrari proved to be one of the most successful periods in the team’s history.

In 1975, Lauda won the Formula 1 Drivers’ Championship, and Ferrari secured the Constructors’ Championship as well. The following year, Lauda's success continued, and the team won multiple races, but the 1976 season would be defined by tragedy. Lauda suffered a life-threatening crash at the German Grand Prix at the Nürburgring, resulting in severe burns. Despite the severity of his injuries, Lauda made a remarkable recovery and returned to racing just six weeks later, showcasing his courage and determination. He ultimately finished the 1976 season in second place, narrowly losing the title to James Hunt.

Lauda went on to win his second World Championship with Ferrari in 1977, before moving to Brabham in 1978. Despite his departure, the team continued to be a strong force in Formula 1.

The 2000s were a golden era for Scuderia Ferrari, as the team entered one of the most successful periods in its history. Under the leadership of Jean Todt, Technical Director Ross Brawn, and Chief Designer Rory Byrne, Ferrari crafted a winning formula that allowed them to dominate Formula 1.

With Michael Schumacher at the helm, Ferrari won the 2000 Drivers' Championship, their first in 21 years. This marked the beginning of a remarkable streak, with Schumacher winning five consecutive Drivers' Championships (2000-2004), and Ferrari securing the Constructors’ Championship every year during this period. Schumacher’s partnership with Ferrari became legendary, and his success at the team helped elevate Ferrari’s status as the most dominant team in Formula 1 during the early 2000s.

In recent years, Scuderia Ferrari has experienced both promising performances and challenges. Sebastian Vettel joined the team in 2015, and under his leadership, Ferrari showed strong performances and came close to challenging for the title in 2017 and 2018, but ultimately lost out to Mercedes in both seasons. Despite strong showings from Vettel, Ferrari struggled with consistency in crucial moments.

In 2020, Ferrari faced a difficult season with the car lacking the performance to compete at the front, but the team continued to develop and adapt. The 2021 and 2022 seasons saw the team improve, with Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz forming a competitive driver lineup. Ferrari showed strong potential with podiums and victories, but once again, they faced tough competition from Red Bull Racing, particularly with the dominance of Max Verstappen.
