The future of F1? Ferrari shows off radical concept car idea

MARANELLO — Ferrari has come up with a design for an aggressive-looking concept car it believes could be the future of Formula One.

Ferrari posted an image of the radical design on its website yesterday and invited fans to comment.

Ferrari says, "Would it be possible to come up with an F1 car which not only is technologically advanced, but also captivating to the eye and aggressive-looking? And could this be made without having to overturn the current technical rules? At Ferrari, we believe so."

Ferrari failed to win a race last year, the first time since 1993, and finished fourth in the constructors' championship, a massive 485 points behind Mercedes. The traumatic year also saw three different team principals, while Sergio Marchionne replaced Luca Cordero di Montezemolo as president.
