Italian car-maker gearing up for its 60th anniversaryFerrari is set to unveil its 2007 challenger tomorrow and as yet we do not know what the Italian team will call the new chassis. The 2006 model was dubbed the 248 F1 breaking with a string of relatively dull designations
such as the F2005, F2004 etc. While tomorrow will be a busy day for the Italian F1 team, we thought we’d bring you a sneak preview of
Kimi Raikkonen posing for the press in his new rather-orange Ferrari race suit.
In the week leading up top the new car launch, Ferrari announced that its 60th anniversary – which takes place between June 21st and June 24 at Maranello – will feature a ‘baton’ race across five continents and the baton itself will feature ‘symbols of the 60 greatest moments in the company's history’.
The ‘Ferrari 60 Relay’ will kick off on January 28th in Abu Dhabi, site of the future Ferrari theme park, and conclude in Maranello on June 24th, after traversing about 50 countries in 148 days.
With Raikkonen joining Felipe Massa on the driving front this year, Ferrari will be aiming to get back to the top step of the podium and deny
Fernando Alonso his third straight crown.
The new car is scheduled to be unveiled at 4pm CET Sunday.
