It’s been a very deep, intense and long job - Costa

The Technical Director of the Scuderia Ferrari, Aldo Costa, was a happy man today at the launch of the all-new F60. Ferrari's 2009 contender was the first one to be unveiled to the public and has a revolutionary design due to the new regulations.

Costa said: “As you can see the car is not an evolution of last year’s car but a completely new car, started from a completely white piece of paper. Fundamentally the biggest change is due to the new rules and the introduction of the new technology, the KERS system.

"Because of these two main aspects, and the new type of tyre, we had to start early and to review all the main concepts of the car. It’s been a very deep, intense and long job.”
