The Ferrari team presented the new SF16-H model at its headquarters in Maranello, the single-seater that it will use to compete in Formula 1 and which has been described by the sporting director, Maurizio Arrivabene, as “more than just a car for racing.”
Defining it as a running car is reductionist. It is the fruit of a lot of work, thanks to the president, who gave us all the means to work well. Here in Maranello there are many important people in all departments who work and contribute to be worthy of bearing this name (Ferrari). We go to the track respecting the competitors but with great intentions ”, declared Arrivabene.
Arrivabene also explained what the H refers to in the name of the new car, SF16-H: “It is for Hybrid and it is the technology used for two years in the development of the engines. It is a complex path but one that is already applied in series cars and I think it is very good that Formula 1 is moving in future directions. “
The new car, which was presented via streaming on Ferrari’s official website, features innovations in five main areas: the hood, suspensions, radiators, the Power Unit and the rear axle, according to reported the engineers present.
The event was also attended by the two Ferrari drivers, the German Sebastian Vettel and the Finn Kimi Raikkonen, both world champions, who will try to break with the hegemony of Mercedes and regain a title in the highest category of motorsport. (INFOBAE)
