uk government awards ferrari for technical innovation

Ferrari has won the prestigious Innovation in Engineering Award during the sixth edition of the Business Awards organized by the British Government.

The Award was presented to Ferrari’s Chief Engineer, Roberto Fedeli at the Milan Stock Exchange by Michael Fallon, the UK’s Minister for Business and Enterprise, in the presence of Corrado Passera, Italy’s Minister for Economic Development, Infrastructures and Transport, and Christopher Prentice, the British Ambassador to Italy.

The award was given to Ferrari by the British Government as a formal recognition of the company’s role in the UK as a symbol of engineering excellence in the automotive industry, where it has continuously demonstrated innovation in advanced engineering.

Ferrari engineering innovation covers every aspect of automotive design, such as aerodynamics with its air-bleed and air bridge technology; weight reduction with its pioneering use of aluminum and composites; engine efficiency with, for example, diamond like coating; chassis design with F1-trac electronic chassis control; four wheel drive systems with the unique system used in the Ferrari FF that cuts weight and boosts response amongst just some of Ferrari’s cutting edge engineering. Ferrari even excels in areas not expected of the legendary supercar maker, such as cutting fuel consumption and emissions with the HELE system which is now applied to all Ferrari models.
