Ferrari F2008 launch tomorrow. Launch season begins!
The first car of the new season is launched tomorrow and, if you can't wait any longer, here are some magnificent teasers.
http://motorsport.com/photos/select....Preview&Y=2008 Already I can see that the car has a much shorter wheelbase than last year and incorporates many radical new features. |

Mclaren's launch is a day after Ferrari. Ample time for them to copy the entire Ferrari design and incorporate into their own. Ban them now.

They have copied my rural mail box design! It is designed with wings to deflect the snow from the snowplow. I must protest to Mad Max.

Maybe it's got some very slight mods to it,but probably not enough to make it sound like this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1Inr...eature=related I love the 'bird song' in the background. Last edited by Marbot; 5 Jan 2008 at 19:44. |

I hope we get some uglier flip ups, as I don't think the current ones are ugly enough.

Ferrari have set up a website dedicated to this years F1 machine. Im assuming that all the launch information/photos etc, will be shown on the website as and when they are available.
The address is http://www.f2008.it/ Currently the page is blank. |

Yes,Ferrari have once again stuck to the tried and tested concept of sticking an upside-down model aeroplane wing through the top of their airbox.
Doesn't look that much different,but then it is only an airbox.Even so,I bet they've spent many a dollar and hour on it. |
