Mobile developer and publisher IN-FUSIO has announced the launch of Ferrari Championship in an exclusive deal with Vodafone. Launching in the UK, France, Germany, Spain and Italy on 55 Java handsets, the game will be a Vodafone live! exclusive.

Ferrari Championship is a racing game simulation for mobiles. Packed with exciting features, players are able to compete against 'Official' Ferrari drivers around the world's most challenging F1 racetracks (expert advice is provided by Jean Todt giving players an insight into what to expect), vying for the coveted Champion title. Players are also able to record their best and fastest laps, which can then be replayed as a 'ghost' sequence to compete against.

This is the third time IN-FUSIO has worked with Vodafone on the Ferrari mobile game brand. The first Vodafone Ferrari mobile game was launched in April 2002.

Tim Harrison, Head of Games at Vodafone, commented "The Ferrari games franchise has proved consistently popular with our customers over the last few years, and our collaboration with IN-FUSIO goes back further still. Ferrari Championship is another strong title to build upon our successful partnership."

Juergen Goeldner, VP Publishing at IN-FUSIO, commented, "The Ferrari brand is synonymous with excellence and leadership. We are delighted to capture this excitement, as a mobile game, and deliver it to the Vodafone Group across the globe."

IN-FUSIO will also be released an IN-FUSIO ExEn version in Italy, Germany and France.
