    I'm tired of all the old guys out there who think the 360 F1 is not a real ferrari all they talk about is 3 pedals. If I need to drive 3 pedals, I'll take one of my others cars. When I ask my son (who is 30) which would he prefer stick or F1, the answer is always the same. F1 of course, why would anyone want a slower Ferrari???? Hold on to your 360 F1 as kids my sons age idiolize the car just the same as I did the 365GTB in my era.

    Proof the F1 is real, and more ferrari then most can handle :

    I hope that idiot is busted and tossed in jail using the video as evidence of his incredible stupidity. Lucky no innocent people were killed on that public road. If he wants to risk his own life do it on a closed course. No one is impressed by his finger flipping the paddle that way.

    Yeah yeah yeah. Think of this video when the red light is flashing and it won't go into gear at an intersection.

    Otherwise guy is an ******* driving like that on a public road.

    Not this again. Unless you have never broken a speed limit in your life, put a sock in it.

    I think in EU people drive over the center line more often, I see it all the time on the youtuber videos around monaco, even stuff like EVO and top gear. In the US its very taboo, specially on the tail of the dragon (which I understand)

    What on earth are you on about this is just a spirited drive. He's well within all the limits of himself and the car and seriously if that's your reaction to that video then you have absolutely no business owning a Ferrari - the idea is to drive them - fast.

    If you want to be upset with someone have a look at you tube for the guys tearing through built up areas flat out - not someone up in the mountains displaying restraint and some ability to keep "road" in his head rather than "track".

    Argh. Rant over

    Big deal, I agree with the comment above about the kid-taxi driver. You are 1000 times more likely to be blindsided by a soccer mom who can't put her cell phone down for 10 seconds than a talented exotic car driver (as this guy obviously is) who happens to be enjoying his car maybe a little too much. If you haven't been guilty of your own "temporary lack of good judgement" at sometime in your life then you're a rare one. I know I have.

    Now I know why Ferrari put the clock on the top; when a recording device is attached at the "rear glass" and aligned towards front, every video viewer will know what time(s) the video was filmed :)

    A little too much time over the center line for my taste, but I've seen a lot crazier stuff. I'd rather take my chances with a 2 ton, 4 ft high Ferrari driven by an enthusiast versus a distracted soccer mom in a 5 ton, 6 ft high luxo barge...T

    I resemble one of those older guys you're talking about and that video doesn't prove jack.
    I do spirited driving in the back woods in my area but as Tom also said I don't cross the centre line that much. I also very rarely go above 145 Km/h because at 150 your car gets towed if you get caught and a "stunt driving' charge is hard to explain at Ins renewal time.

    I'm all for "spirited" driving, but this goes too far for an open public road. He's clearly a skilled driver, but he's going too fast around blind corners to be able to deal with any unexpected situations that you can encounter on a public road (e.g., stalled car, oncoming passing car, debris in the road, etc.). People keep saying that this is better than the driving of a soccer mom. Thing is, if the soccer mom hits you, she's probably going 30 mph, not 100 mph. That makes a big difference. Beyond the safety issues, this sort of driving on public roads only reinforces negative stereotypes about "rich supercar owners."

    Wish I would have said it that way. The guy is skilled and young. If he keeps that up he will not be skilled and old and may take someone innocent with him when his luck runs out. Not a matter of IF but WHEN.

    Btw guys ... He goes over center line to create better apexes in his turns ... Not dangerous if he's got line of sight ...

    ...and you can see through turns better "over the lines" before diving through and out ... It might piss some of you off but I gotta call you out ... And you know who you are ... Stop rubbing and servicing and writing about your cars and go learn how to drive them at speed ... That's what they're for ... They're great machines ... Learn to use them as intended or admit to yourself that you're kinda a pretender ... It's not an awful place to be ... It's just not as fun as throwing yourself a bit more into it IMHO .

    If you want to drive like that, just take it to the track. That's what it's for.

    The line of sight when crossing the broken lines seemed mostly OK fro what I could see. Human eye has wider angle of view than a camera. I am often looking to the side window.

    Good spirited drive. Enjoyed the video and owning a manual I agree that would (for me) be more fun with F1.
