FerrariGameloft has announced that it has signed a worldwide deal to make mobile games using the Ferrari brand. The first title is called Ferrari World Championship and should come later this month.

The game puts you behind the wheels as Kimi Raikkonen or Felipe Massa, and in addition to racing in the current F1 season, it is also possible to hop into a vintage Ferrari F500 F2 from 1951.

Think that’s cool? Let’s pause for a moment to speculate a bit. Gameloft has a Ferrari license and they also announced they’ll bring at least 15 titles to the Apple’s handset this year. Is Ferrari coming to iPhone? While we don’t have any word about such possibility it’s only natural the game developer would want to monetize on its relationship with the famous car brand. C’mon folks, admit it – you will be launching the Ferrari game for the iPhone, won’t you? ;)
