The Ferrari F60 has arrived in South Africa for the launch of the new Shell V-Power Nitro+ Fuel.

The F60 will perform a street demo opposite Soccer City in Johannesburg, the same stadium that hosted the 2010 Soccer World Cup final.

Scuderia Test driver Marc Gene will be at the wheel of the F60. The F60 was the last car Raikkonen drove when his first stint as a Ferrari driver ended in 2009

The demo will take place on Saturday 15 February.

The pit crew landed in South Africa this morning and went straight to the temporary circuit. The circuit which is just under one and a half kilometers long will see test driver Marc Gene do some spectacular burn outs, pit stops and full throttle fly by’s. Gene will land in South Africa tomorrow after which he will visit the Nelson Mandela’s house in Orlando

It has been a while since we heard a Formula 1 car fire up in out back yard. We are very excited about this and we are looking forward to hearing the roar of the V8 echo around the Soccer City precinct.
