Ferrari’s 2012 F1 car previewed

Ferrari F2012 F1 car

Italian magazine Autosprint has published these technical drawings of what they say is Ferrari’s 2012 F1 racecar. Likely to be dubbed the F12 or F2012 the car is due for an official reveal on 3 February.

Like the Caterham CT01, it’s understood the Ferrari will also feature a hump of some sort along its nose.

Team boss Stefano Domenicali has warned: “It’s (the 2012 car) definitely different, because it represents a clear break with the past in terms of the design philosophy.

“It’s not that pretty, because the shape defined by the technical regulations does not leave much scope, but, and this is what counts really, our hopes are that it is at the very least quick!”

It’s understood the sidepods will be quite similar to last year’s McLaren MP4-26.

We’ll bring you official info from Ferrari along with pics, in wallpaper-friendly sizing, as soon as it comes to hand.
