Are Times That Hard For Ferrari?

Ferrari has been the first of the Formula One teams to break cover with their new car for 2009. The Ferrari F60, with Felipe Massa describing it as "tiny, very compact and cute".

Cute? Has Massa been on the Caipirinha. Now I realise Max (alleged bum spanker) Mosely has told the teams to save some cash, but the rear wing looks like a shopping trolley handle (suppose it saves on carbon fibre though). On the plus side, they've got rid of loads of those stupid little wings and deflectors so side on it is far more pleasurable to look at.

With McLaren launching their Vodafone McLaren Mercedes MP4-24 (shopping trolley) on the 16th of January, it shouldn't be too long before we see some proper testing and see what effect the new KERS System will have.

Personally I can't wait. Rule changes always tend to put a cat amongst the pigeons.
