    Could be possible with the "extra help" someone mentioned before (might have been Alberto, but I'm not entirely sure about it). Don't know much about engineering, but we all know Ferrari is quite good at producing absolute marvels from this point of view. Plus, the 812 engine is 70% or so (as far as I remember) new compared to the previous iterations, the prancing horse could have some extra aces up their sleeve.

    In any case, I'm sure it will be fast, powerful and we will all be impressed. Looks, on the other hand, is still a mistery...hopefully It will be as aggressive as the F12tdf.

    Still waiting for Ferrari to use the "Furia" (italian for "Fury") moniker...also as a tribute to the Legend himself, Mauro Forghieri.

    Sounds more like a Lamborghini small series than a Ferrari name IMO... Ferrari always draws its inspiration from its heritage and typically avoids such spectacular names, a thing lamborghini does often : "Diablo" "Huracan"

    Nice detail that announces new design features!

    Image Unavailable, Please Login

    Might be possible that it will be presented at the Finali Mondiali - that have just been moved back to Italy at Misano instead of Abu Dhabi.

    oh yes....this is for sure a specific element of 812VS for the front
    another one will be at the back.....

    btw it seems plans changed again so at Misano we will see the new SF90 Spider.....for 812VS need to wait a little bit more

    At first glance this looks like power cables taped together exiting the battery box and going under the vehicle. This is not present on the driver's side. Confusing how this is is a design element but take your word for it.

    Curious to see an almost proper front bumper instead of the usual “puffy” camo.

    What is the consensus for body panels remaining unchanged, other than the doors? TdF had whole new rear quarters—this one?

    The front, back and all new fenders trim detail. More liberal use of carbon to.

    Competizione would be great. But this name is proper for a Ferrari race car (not street legal).

    My bet is Ferrari 812 Daytona, or just Ferrari Daytona. This name has already been used in a legendary V12, and it is also the name of the race that Ferrari has history. Very suitable for a track-focused version of the V12 model.

    We've had F12 TdF (Tour de France) so maybe 812 MM (Mille Miglia) is a contender?

    What about 812 Mugello? This track hasn’t been used in a Ferrari model name.

    I think this extrahelp could be a joke we were given. Maybe the thermal sensors I saw on ther rear right arch of a 812 VS test mule were there only to check the new gearbox oil radiator there is in that area, as probably they moved to the eight speed DCT

    ciao

    My opinion (private opinion, no rumors here) is that there will be a 812VS GTS too as after the Lusso production stop there is more room in the V12 assembly line up to 2022, when they will introduce Purosangue (that probably will be assembled there, whatever engine it will have).

    ciao
