The '''Dallara SF19''' is an open-wheel single-seater sports car that will start competing from [[2019 Super Formula Championship|2019]] in the [[Super Formula]] Japanese championship. It will replace the [[Dallara SF14]].

== History ==
The single-seater was introduced in October 2017, on the [[Suzuka Circuit]], and is the only one admitted to the [[Super Formula]] championship, the most important open-wheel racing car championship in [[Japan]], starting from the 2019 season.<ref name=italiaracing/>

The first '' shakedown '' of the car took place in June 2018, at the [[Autodromo Riccardo Paletti]] in [[Varano de' Melegari]], with the Japanese driver [[Tomoki Nojiri]] at its head. The driver completed 71 laps, also achieving the track record, in 57 seconds, two seconds faster than the previous limit set by a [[Le Mans Prototype|LMP1 car]]. The first two cars produced were then shipped to Japan, for tests on [[Fuji Speedway]].<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref> Nojiri, tests in at home, completed 129 laps, in two days, even if only on the second day he was able to fit dry tires after the rain of the first day. The time obtained, 1'26"173, is two seconds lower than the ''pole position'' of 2017, obtained from the SF14.<ref name=5lug>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref> During the tests carried out in August, Nojiri also tried a new display model, placed on the helmet visor.<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>

== Technical specifications ==
The car, compared to the SF14, is based on greater exploitation of the ''downforce'' generated by the bottom, shifting the balance from the wings to the ground effect, in order to increase the chances of overtaking. The appearance is more similar to that of the F1, with a fin on the hood, and of the more pronounced lateral bellies.<ref name=italiaracing></ref> The ''[[Halo (safety device)|Halo]]'' is not foreseen in the original project, but Dallara has studied the possibility of its presence.<ref name=5lug/>

The engine derives from the one used in the [[Super GT]], and is a 2.000 [[cubic centimeter|cc]], with fuel limiter and ''push to pass'' system.<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>
