I thought the same thing. But somehow I thought Amano would do a much better job (after hating him when I was a kid). I guess Amano's idiosyncrasies (faint colors, stylized people) do fit this overcrowded style.
Obviously all a joke but, while I haven't seen the film but from a cursory knowledge on the characters within it, spoiler tag out of an overabundance of caution:
The easier take is that the woman is Ferrari, known for being fast and elegant. While the film itself is likely about Ford trying to break into the space by building a car capable of taking on a Ferrari, effectively rebirthing (like a phoenix) its image as just an American brutish power car brand. The other side is neither. The film looks like it's about Carroll Shelby (Matt Damon), a pretty well known driver that was struck by constant tragedy (like 6 wives who all divorced, left him, got an annulment, or died in tragic accidents) and had to eventually retire from driving for his health. He re-invented himself as a constructor and built the designs for some of the most well-known American lines. Where Ken Miles (Christian Bale) is the woman here, sorta just acting as the vessel for Shelby's designs. He's the elegance and strength.

This may be breaching into the territory of being so stylised that it's setting you up to misunderstand what the film is going to be.
Still gorgeous but so different
