    i just had a belt service done on my red stradale (now it's the yellow ones turn). i have a little over 14,000 miles on each car. i just want to pass on a few data points:

    clutch wear: 17 percent

    brake rotor wear: 9 percent

    tensioners and bearings were inspected appear to be good for another 15K miles :)

    i am particularly happy to learn that my rotors only have a modest amount of wear since they are very expensive to replace :) i have never tracked either of my cars, but i do drive them fairly aggressivley. but i do not abuse them at all.

    17% clutch wear in 14k miles? That is fantastic!

    Do I need to ask who did the service? ;)

    Chris, i think it was www.eugeniosferrariservice.com

    rumor has it now the yellow one is there

    two Stradales !
    must be nice :)
    drive one up, pick up one, drove home in another one,

    in my opinion, the Stradale is the best looking modern Ferrari ever

    worth every penny

    That makes 3 Stradales, including mine, with between 14-17% clutch wear on cars with between 10-14K miles on the odometer. If the trend in clutch wear is linear, it would appear we're good for 50K miles, at least. And if your brake wear is typical, it would appear the hypothesis that CS brakes could be good for the "life of the car" isn't overly exagerated, depending on type of driving of course.
