We look forward to the continuing co-operation” The official sponsorship agreement includes supply of bearings for wheel ends, suspension, transmission, gear applications and KERS, the Kinetic Energy Recovery System, as well as sealing solutions and engineering services particularly in the field of condition monitoring systems. SKF supplies Scuderia Ferrari with around 150 components, which means virtually all of the bearings assembled on an F1 car. SKF later transfers the developed technology into offers for the general automotive industry. Already now and also within the next 14 months SKF will be deeply involved alongside Ferrari to further develop the V6 turbocharged powertrain, to meet higher reliability targets and the car trend of downsizing components and increasing fuel efficiency.
