CHANGES FOR '09 // F1 TO SEE MORE PASSING?

After the 2008 season wraps up in Brazil this November, the 2009 Formula One cars will be unveiled to the public. Minus the downforce, slotted tires and bodywork appendages (shown above), the ‘09 F1 cars will offer more opportunity for driver error, leading to more opportunity for passing. McLaren test drivers Pedro de la Rosa and Gary Paffett, while behind the wheel of simulators at the McLaren test facility in Woking, said they were “thrilled” with the overtaking possibilities the 2009 model offers. As you should well know by now, (if you don’t, your not reading enough...) the ColdTrackDays staff is headed to Monza for the Italian Grand Prix, and will be witness to one of the last races of the 2008 season. So stay tuned to ColdTrackDays, as we will be reporting live from Monza through out the month of September // 08.28.2008
