Ferrari get to work on F60 glitches

Now I’d be lying if I didn’t think this was the funniest PR move since the BBF1 team fired David “Dave” Richards, but really – Ferrari couldn’t get their car to run a full day at their launch?! Really? Gee maybe you should have waited until everyone else debut at RD1’s favorite track so you could hide behind them when things went wrong.

And I know, I know – Ferrari is running the new regs and KERS and yada yada yada but come on, they hurried up so they could be first and then invited the whole world to look at their car – a car we know has nothing to do with the car we’ll see at Australia – and Massa has to sit out half the day because they can’t get the car around the track. Is this Ferrari or FIF1?

I also know that I shouldn’t mock Ferrari until McLaren makes their debut, but this is crazy. And something that would never have happen on Jean Todt’s watch. Good luck debugging that car and let’s hope that nice bit of positive spin by Mr. Noble at Autosport does the trick.

Insert a Mr. Burns’s “excellent” here. Oh and did I mention that the part of Mr. Burns will be played by Ron Dennis.

    I think you said it yourself Grace, this is not the car we are going to see in Austrailia, things will work themselves out. However, you are right, definatley not the best way to launch a defending constructors championship car….

  2. Frantic says:

    Well Grace at least our car passes crash tests!

  3. behalf says:

    well at least they were the first outing the new concept. We have to wait for the first run of macca Renault bmw etc to see how glitch-free they are. Better yet, wait for the first mass at algarve; sweet and sour test will be!

    • WFP says:

      yeah Grace…why is Macca taking so long???? CLueless???? potentially trying to copy a certain design….not like it has never happened before….lol
