Early-type galaxies (ETGs) satisfy a now classic scaling relation R_e ∝ σ^1.2_eI−0.8_e, the Fundamental Plane (FP; Djorgovski & Davis 1987; Dressler et al. 1987), between their size, stellar velocity dispersion and mean surface brightness. A significant effort has been devoted in the past twenty years to try to understand why the coefficients of the relation are not the ones predicted by the virial theorem R_e ∝ σ²_eI⁻¹_e.
