Vodaphone McLaren-Mercedes is the first of the front-line Formula 1 teams to unveil their challenger for the 2012 season. The Mclaren MP4-27 was showcased at the McLaren Technology Centre and is described as a natural evolution of last year's six-race-winning car although all major systems have received an overhaul.

The ugly front nose that has been widely discussed in the media recently is evident in these early pictures that have been released.

Naturally, McLaren has detailed very little of the technical expertise, but there are a couple of pieces of information they did share with us. The race car sports a tightly waisted rear bodywork that improves airflow to the rear and it also houses a modified cooling system that re-directs the gearbox oil-cooler.

The MP4-27 will be debuted by McLaren youngster Oliver Turvey at an aerodynamic test this weekend, before Jenson Button drives it at the opening of the Jerez test.

Novitec Ferrari 16M:

Exotica Motorsports breaks this story with some non-official images of the Novitec Ferrari 16M.
The Novitec Ferrari 16M is the latest creation from the German tuner. Taking an amazing car like the Ferrari Scuderia and Ferrari 16M to the next level of performance, is a tough task. Novitec outfitted this 16M with their 3-pc NF3 wheels in custom painted colors. The NF3 wheels are 20x8.5” front and 20x12” rear and feature Pirelli tires. The suspension is converted to their Hydraulic Coil-Over Suspension system which allows for a 40mm front end lift when entering driveways or going over speed bumps by the touch of a button. The engine of this very special 16M is outfitted with a twin supercharger system that gives a horsepower rating of 696hp! Finishing off the car is Novitec’s black tail lights, LED third brake light and reflectors. Novitec also has a range of products for the Scuderia and other Ferraris.

Ferrari 599XX

While based on the 599 GTB Fiorano with the same transaxle layout and engine type, this prototype is an extreme track car. Ferrari's engineers have carried out extensive work on the engine's combustion chambers and inlet and exhaust tracts. These modifications, combined with the fact that internal attrition has been reduced and the maximum revs have been boosted to 9,000 rpm, helped achieve the target power output of 700 hp at 9,000 rpm. Particular attention was also paid to cutting the weight of the engine unit components. This was achieved both by optimising forms - as in the new crankshaft - and adopting exclusive materials, as in the carbon-fibre used for the intake plenums. A new gearbox shift strategy cuts overall gearchange times to 60 ms.

The 599XX is characterised by an innovative electronic concept called the "High Performance Dynamic Concept" which has been designed to get the maximum performance from the car by managing the combination of the car's mechanical limits with the potential of its electronic controls. The mechanical and electronic systems work together to get the maximum performance from the car under extreme high performance driving, for consistent lap times. The sporty handling has been improved thanks to the adoption of second generation SCM suspension system. Track usage is also made easier thanks to the new "virtual car engineer", a screen in the car that provides a real-time indication of the vehicle's efficiency.

The 599XX's aerodynamics were honed in numerous wind tunnel test sessions with the result that the car now boasts 280 kg of downforce at 200 km/h (630 kg at 300 km/h).

ASI proudly announces the culmination of our first major project outside of the Bentley Continental series: the ASI Ferrari F430 body kit and performance line-up. Applying expert Japanese technical analysis, careful testing and a truly imaginative and spirited design is not only our business, it’s our passion. Thoroughly tested both around the city and around the track, we are confident that we are releasing what will quickly become the tuning world’s most important Ferrari F430 body kit.

Comprised of front bumper, side skirts and rear bumper, ASI’s Ferrari F430 body kit offers aerodynamic performance identical to Ferrari stock parts but at a 27kg weight reduction, not to mention the easily distinguishable new ASI flare. Our rear bumper is compatible both with the F430’s stock exhaust and ASI’s new exhaust system, which will offer further performance enhancements via
“Scuderia-style” centered exhaust tips.
