    It's as if marketing didn't know the history or worse, didn't care... :(

    The F80 is futuristic and produces 1050 kg of downforce. This is just an ode to the past, recycling the LaFerrari's mechanicals, only being slower.

    I thought these were driving machines... I guess people confuse cars with paintings.

    Case in point: Tonight I was out with some car enthusiast friends of mine who come from various economic backgrounds. We all hang together, speaking equally about Toyotas and Ferraris over our beer, wine and food. An acquaintance (whom I have also met once or twice) of one of the chaps bought a 250 GTO recently. When I asked my friend what the new owner thinks about how it drives, he told me that he thinks it is rubbish, like all old cars. He even brought my E-Type as an example and I agreed that these cars are nigh on dangerous when driven spiritedly. It is the same as buying an ancient sword with a gold hilt. Today it is useless as a weapon but it is part of history and it may cost millions. My point is that we should not confuse Spitfires with Eurofighters and say that modern machines should look like antiquated one. I understand that the SP3 is not antiquated, but launching a 2025 hypercar with the performance of a 2005 one is just silly and certainly not Ferrari-like.

    Well said!
    Yes your countryman has already taken your message to heart. Sold all the cars to concentrate on art. No more MOT worries...

    I guess you are referring to Sir Lewis. Well, he can do whatever he wants obviously. What breaks my heart is that he is not really into cars, and as it seems nor into F1 driving anymore...
