Ferrari today unveiled their new Formula one (F1) car F150. Ferrari also became the 1st F1 team to throw open their car just ahead of the new season. And quite naturally Spanish Fernando Alonso and Brazilian Felipe Massa looked cheerful with the new F150 car. As far as racing in the upcoming year, Fernando Alonso said, "Last year was an incredible one for me. I discovered a wonderful team, one that was really passionate for a new driver. This year is an important one due to the new technical regulations which means drivers will have to adapt to a new style, such as the re-introduction of Kers (kinetic energy recovery system)."
Talking about the new car, he said, "This car is the fruit of many months of hard work from the people at Ferrari. Now we have to commit completely to what we do and we are ready, we are up for the challenge."
Even though he only finished up as runner-up in the championship last season, he said that tougher challenges will be surely be there for him this year too. He said, "I know the team better now. I know the names of the mechanics, which I didn't last year which was not easy for me, but I'm now far more integrated within the team. I feel it will be easier for me to adapt to the new car."
Team-mate Felipe Massa gave him company and said, "I still have many years ahead of me, I'm really motivated and excited. I've followed the development of the car up until now, and I am really eager to start the new year. There are a lot of things to learn as quickly as possible, and I really hope this new car will live and grow as quickly as possible.
He even pointed out that this new can obviously do wonders for him this year. He said, "Working on a car is not a simple task, but with the strength and work of our engineers and mechanics, I think it will be easy for me to learn all the new rules and have good results this season."
