Ferrari have called on their fans to voice their opinions about a new concept Formula One car.

Ferrari seeks views on concept car

With the sport set to make changes for the future, and with ideas up for discussion at an F1 Commission meeting in Geneva this week, Ferrari have unveiled their own idea as to how an F1 car should look.

Despite being seemingly radical compared to today’s cars, the Maranello marque said few changes to the current regulations would be required for F1 to venture down such a route.

Ferrari, via their website, said: “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.

“Let us introduce you to the ‘concept design’ that was conceived by our design studio (Centro Stile Ferrari), together with the Scuderia’s aero department.

“Minimal changes give the car a look that is way different from what we have been familiar with so far.

“Our challenge was to create something that was — to put it short — better-looking. We value your comments on that.”

It is understood McLaren and Red Bull have also penned concept designs, but have yet to make them available for public consumption.
