    If someone signed an NDA - totally agree with you. That person if they leaked the photo, should be held to account.

    But what if it’s some randomn person in the building? They happen to see the car of the year in the flesh and snapped a pic? You can’t blame that person, that is on Ferrari.

    Like you I reserve full judgement till official reveal tomorrow but I’m not impressed by the initial exposure.

    Especially **if** it looks like a F8 Tributo

    600k+ for a F8 Tributo with new electric hybrid system + TTV8
    300k+ for F8 Tributo last pure ICE mid engine TTV8 and no hybrid

    In a vacuum something better be compelling for the former to win out over the latter, and I’m not even a fan of the F8 looks (which is purely subjective and opinion). I am also eager to see the futuristic interior and how they do the infotainment since that is where the driver spends their time. That hasn’t been “leaked” yet

    Is that it?

    Let's hope what's under the skin is juicy.

    Doesn't look anything like a spaceship.

    Looks like a F8 Spider.

    Will wait for better pics tomorrow.

    Perhaps it’s strength related since the BB is heavier?

    It is no building, it is a marquee in Fiorano. Full security, confiscated phones etc. This must be an event sub-contractor of some kind. No wonder he’s trying to get the pic deleted, his company is very unlikely to be used again.

    The contractor should be fired and the company held to account if they signed non disclosure papers.

    Hahaha

    The Ferrari insiders must be laughing at our reactions as they watch this play out live already knowing what the car would look like

    “LaFerrarina” that was once talked about.

    Actually I think this leaked picture originated with the earlier dealer show in the new Design Studio building. Same setup was used for the smaller Monza intro event as seen in this picture with the tier seating to.

    I think it is very probable that its SF90 as that number plate is not available. Bet you Ferrari over here got in first

    It does not look bad but it's just old news already. It's a Laferrari with some cues of the 488/F8/Deborah/J50.

    $600k is a lot for a meal put together with leftovers.

    Given the poor results of the F1 team this year, why would they use that name? I know it's the 90th anniversary of the Scuderia, but thus far, the F1 namesake SF90 appears to be a dud...T

    Very funny mix of comments - from people who can't distinguish this car from an F8, some who don't believe it's the real thing - and yet mostly critical comments based on a poor picture that hides a lot of detail, especially from those who can't tell the difference from an F8.

    I don't know what people were expecting. The thing's been seen for months and there's really nothing unexpected here save for a few details.

    I know we were promised a spaceship but it was obvious that it wasn't going to be a flying saucer.

    I'm not stressed. It's just too much negative comments about a picture that clearly doesn't show the lines good. With time, will see people say 'it's really growing on me' and other things about the design, it's always the same thing. And last, you don't now me, you don't now what i have or bought. If they really bought a bunch of cars, ok, great, but there a are too many people with money this days, and money don't buy taste or absolve you to say boring things.

    Cheers.

    It may look like a bunch of other Ferraris but at least nobody can say it looks like.... a Corvette! :)
