    It's interesting about the wheels as they look really 355 to me, which is not a bad thing.

    This drawing is cool but it's not the fault of the engineers but human proportions. In this drawing, you would lie down flat on your back.

    Amazing car, but I wish they removed the septum at the front. Otherwise a perfect design, hearkens back to the '60s Le Mans racers while integrating the design with modern F1.

    Yes I think you will see some of this car in the MonteCarlo -- particularly the black rear with the moving wing and undertray.

    Like it. Quite different than I expected. Performance numbers are astonishing.

    Name is pretty lame. The obvious, clearly correct name was just waiting to be used:

    Il Commendatore

    How did they mess that up after coming up with such a cool car?

    I understand that top speed wasn't the goal here, but why only 205mph? That's practically the same as the 458...

    I see some of this in the front. Yes, it's like the F430 but there is an influence from here also in the way the hood and nose protrudes out to the shark snout.

    You guys better hurry up with that replacement name because 'Ferrari LaFairy' is starting to take hold in some corners of the web already. :eek: :D

    Really - the chosen name is awful. How about an online petition or something? ;)

    See F70 thread.

    http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/142150464-post7979.html

    In a straight line it truly will.

    Around the Ring I still think because of it's rear wing producing more downforce P 1 will be faster. The F70 may just break 7:00 but due to it's overhang I think it will be more like 7:03 and I still guess P1 at about 6:55. 918 is at 7:09 from what I hear.
