    There have been too many examples of this, inexperienced drivers with 'mine is bigger than yours' egos wrecking their hyper-cars. Some day one of them is going to kill one or several innocent passers-by. At which point I am wondering if a resourceful lawyer is going to include Ferrari as a defendant in the multi-million dollar/euro law-suit for selling to an unqualified buyer the dangerous weapon a Ferrari super-car is.

    just sayin'

    1050 bhp in the city is a real problem.

    Always the same... Cold tyres, too hard on the throttle, too dumb driver.

    It's the Manettino setting, maximum to go is only Race mode, otherwise you are Hamilton's cousin.

    Super cars are not for the inexperienced.

    You do need some talent as well. More than most people have, in my opinion. The driver here clearly did not have them, three different inputs that upset the car in the space of half a second - the LaF is just doing what it is told.

    Cool city, BTW, Budapest, enjoyed visiting in my 550.

    I thought this video is strange.
    to buy a LaF, the buyer has to be handpicked. He must have a few exotics in the house. He is likely not a stranger to high power car and know about cold tires.

    seems strange that a buyer of such a car is so inexperienced. Maybe second-hand buyer.

    Agreed. I dont see any real idiotic reckless driving here...the car seems basically undriveable without electronic driving aids. Thats way more alarming IMO. Just the result of an ridiculously overpowered car in the hands of an average skilled driver.

    He got what he deserved because he didn't signal his lane changes (a pet peeve of mine).

    Has to be more to this ... Frozen tires with 10,000 horsepower wouldn't cut the wheels that drastically. Maybe he panicked when he veered a bit to the left and just cut the wheel too far right? No idea how this could happen.

    Just inexperienced: just applied too much throttle and send the back tires
    spinning.

    My Italia will spin out in third gear if I am not careful with my right foot so can't
    imagine what a LaF would do!

    Exactly. He overcorrected. Typical error of a mediocre driver.
