    Better let them know they’re doing it wrong…

    It’s pretty cool how the F250 draws inspiration from the 499P. The front and rear arches and side body are basically the same idea as the 499P.

    It's a pretty good match, makes me think it most likely is the final car, mostly that is, not sure if they'd use that 12 cilindri stripe on the front end

    Yes and no as it could be more RB17 / Valkyrie design/aero based

    That’s pretty much it except for the shape the rear lights surround, the rear wheel bump and the way the retracted rear wing sits either too low or the longitudinal crease is too high at the back.

    What’s not too evident in the pics and this render is how a scoop is scalloped out of the door top, similar to SP3 Daytona, except in the latter the door top cutout was venting air out.

    Then this would compromise its road usability.
    Never was F250 purpose.

    Only unofficial rumors.
    For sure it’s compromise between performance and usability will be a lot better compared with a Valkyrie.

    it has to be I think, looking at this thread it seems usability is very important for people buying Ferrari hypercars

    As hinted at by @day355, I believe the connection is intentional, with similar headlights, laterally protruding front fenders, and the NACA-shaped inlet, though the latter is higher up than the F40, being up in the B-pillar area.

    Yes I heard from good sources they have push rods and electric turbo but I can’t confirm at 100%

    Man, if this is it, Ferrari have turned failure into an art form, this is hideous.
    It was bad as it was that it had a V6 instead of a V12, now it's a failure of monumental proportions.
    The design was the only thing that might have salvaged the situation one bit after their bad engine choice.


    UTTER FAILURE and DISSAPOINTMENT: horrible engine choice, design, and it's also gonna be heavy as hell.

    That’s a good question. Remembering that LaF doesn’t have pushrods, and that this car doesn’t have center-lock wheels, chances are it will use existing uprights and the standard Ferrari suspension layout, including the peculiar rear suspension layout of just a single upper radius arm in lieu of upper A-arm.

    But… seeing how much air is flowing through the front axle, there’s also a good chance—especially at the front—that they are using push-rods to get the spring/damper out of the airflow. Don’t know about the rear—if standard suspension was good enough for LaF, maybe it’s good enough here.

    It's quite square and Scandinavian in approach. And yes, there are F 40 vibrations...

    Do you know if there will be any good surprises in terms of sound/frequencies?
