Scuderia Ferrari débuted their 2009 Formula 1 car the F60. It's getting me fired up for the new season starting in March. Ferrari won the Constructors title in 2008 and Filipe Massa missed the Drivers title by 1 point.
A couple of new changes in rules for this season: KERS (Kinetic Energy Recovery System) are optional. This is energy lost during braking will now be able to be recovered, stored, and used as a "boost" in power. Slick tires are back, hopefully there are no broken necks when these guys turn into a corner. It's crazy how aggressive they go into corners. Also new bodywork changes such as wider front wing and narrower rear wing to help with overtaking (apparently those who prefer NASCAR don't like that you can't hit someone to over take them and they don't like that in 2008 the Championship came down to the last corner of the last lap of the last race, that’s not exciting, apparently).
