Ferrari’s 2012 car, described as “not pretty” by Stefano Domenicali this week and codenamed 663, reportedly failed to pass the FIA’s mandatory crash tests at the first attempt.<\/p>\n
The news was reported by the Finnish newspaper Turun Sanomat as well as Yahoo Italia\/Eurosport.<\/p>\n
The governing body’s crash test rules have been tweaked for 2012, meaning they must be passed before a team can test its new car during the official pre-season period beginning in February.<\/p>\n
Ferrari reportedly attempted the crash tests with its all-new ‘663’ model a few weeks ago.<\/p>\n
It emerged from the ‘Wrooom’ media event in the Italian Dolomites that Ferrari is trying again this week.<\/p>\n
The Ferrari crash testing will take place at the CSI technical facility in Bollate, near Milan.<\/p>\n
Yahoo Italia\/Eurosport said that, in the wake of the initially failed tests, the car has been reinforced with additional carbon sheets.<\/p>\n
