Take a look at the Ferrari and McLaren launch news and pictures. It's our first glimpse of the two cars that will probably be fighting out the destiny of the 2008 world title. Last year featured an epic championship contest between the two teams, a long way clear of the rest. But only rarely did that translate into the individual races. The diametrically opposed characteristics of the F2007 and the MP4-22 meant that usually one or the other of them was dominant at any given track. So the Ferrari owned Albert Park, Barcelona, Magny-Cours, Silverstone, Istanbul, Spa and Interlagos whereas the McLaren was in a class of its own at Monte Carlo, Montreal, Indianapolis, the Hungaroring and Monza. That left just five of the 17 races where the performance of the two types of car were closely matched on the day and in two of those - the Nurburgring and Fuji - this came about only thanks to some help from the weather. © 2021 Autosport
