    Any idea what might be the cause? The 3rd brake light on the rear deck flickers when I hit the brake pedal. Driver and fellow Ferrari enthusiast pointed it out to me when at the stop light yesterday.

    Holding the brake pedal continues the flickering. It seems to be at the edges of the led center brake light.

    The most obvious thing is a loose connection. If all LEDs flicker it is probably a wire or connector to the strip. If just the outer ones (I was unsure from your description) then it sounds like a loose connection inside the strip. Unless it's intermittent, it should be easy to diagnose and repair.
