We dont have the downforce numbers.
The brakes shouldnt be a problem on the F50 GT as it has carbon 380mms discs..

The F50 is lighter , has more power and sooner.It also has more torque than the 333 SP
(520.0 nm / 383.5 ft lbs @ 8000 rpm vs 447.4 nm / 330.0 ft lbs @ 9000 rpm )

My guess is that the F50 would be faster.

Cool topic... I would say the 333SP as well. I would asume it carries more speed through the corners. But the GT is a real racer too, so I'm not sure... and 1800 lbs!! Hot damn... what did they do? Find some superlight alien alloy?

I would guess the opposite, I think the 333SP should be the all out winner at a track considering the handling in the corners and the brakes. I think the 333SP is one of Ferraris best cars, it doesn't get much better than that.

Which car could/should win around the track? The GT has more power and is lighter- shouldn't it be an obvious winner?
