Felipe Massa on the way to fourth place in his Ferrari F2012. Yeongam, Korean GP, 14 October 2012…

It’s a relatively simple panned-shot made striking by its composition in terms of background. The lines of the car are shown to rather good effect.

The class of the 2012 grid was the Red Bull RB8 Renault which took five wins in World Champ Sebastian Vettel’s hands, and two in Mark Webber’s. Vettel and Red Bull won the drivers and manufacturers titles respectively.

The F2012 was a competitive tool though. Fernando Alonso won in Sepang, Valencia and Hockenheim. It was powered by the mandated 2.4-litre V8 which developed about 750bhp at the mandated rev limit of 18,000rpm.

Lotsa mandateds in F1 these days.

Too many.

Ugly as a hatful. The F2012, not Massa and Alonso- Fiorano launch (Ferrari)
