    Yes "F8 Finale" that has a certain ring to it. Though it sort of reminds me of the old MONDIAL 8 cars.

    I’m thinking F398 Anima (similar to 308, 328, and 458 nomenclature) for 3.9 liters, 8 cylinders, and a whole lotta Italian soul

    I can guarantee you one thing. Whatever its called, there will be a lot of pissing and moaning about the name and how stupid it is. :)

    We are probably at less than 20 hours from reveal and still nothing has leaked, I think it's an amazingly careful job they're doing.

    Is that the Pista engine? Or a new engine with a CF option on it I wonder?

    We will find out tomorrow. I think it’ll be very close to the Pista engine less the inconel exhaust.

    You're probably right but the size does appear weird to me

    Has to be red though, the traditional Italian colour. Saving a few grams is a good thing!!!

    As you might have already seen in the Pista's technical presentation video, the usual air collector has been removed almost entirely. So what you see in the teaser video is the CF plenum cover of the Pista.

    In the video, the exhaust sounds similar to the Pista with its high whistle sound.
