    Maybe they're new pieces unpainted. They don't look like a new colour scheme/livery to me.

    Parts being tested, may later be crash-tested. See the fairly common pics of stacked Ferrari wrecks after crash-testing.

    Do you have a picture of the rear? Would be interesting to see how the boffins have set up the diffuser with what looks like it is the side-exhaust.

    The car appears to be in primer. It is probably a car that was recently converted from standard to Evo specification, or possibly a car that had accident damage repaired. It looks like they took it out for a shakedown before putting it in the paint booth.

    Agree. That's what it is.

    When Ferrari were developing the 458, spy photos came out of different crash test cars with this light blue. I wonder though, why would Ferrari need to crash test a race-car that's already been fielded? (through the XX Programme at least) Old photos maybe??

    can you provide a link? I've never seen crash tested Ferrari's let alone stacks of them.

    Maybe it's a "standard" 599XX being converted to an xxEvo.
