I watched this documentary (view here) on Saturday night on Sky2 and it was a great insight to just how much passion and work goes into making an F1 car for a historic team. 2014 is a year of big changes in Formula 1 and Ferrari reveal their 3 years of planning and expectations, including with partners Shell on creating the perfect fuel mixture for a V6 Turbo engine.

With unprecedented access in the team’s Maranello factory, Ferrari team members share their thoughts and we also get to see exclusive behind-the-scenes footage of Kimi Raikkonen and Fernando Alonso work in the team’s highly advanced F1 simulator – a pitch black room with a bunch of engineers on the other side watching everything with sharp eyes.

We also get to see behind-the-scenes at the first roll-out test in Jerez where the team met with an undesirable first taste of the car but worked hard and most importantly kept progress on track.

WhisperFilmsUK – Five years without a World Championship at Ferrari means the pressure to deliver a championship winning car is greater than ever. This is a candid, honest story following the people at the heart of Ferrari trying to bring success back to this Italian institution in the build up to the first race of the 2014 season.
