Spotted: A Ferrari FF Mule Driven Hard Around Fiorano

While it is true that Ferrari quite often tests new models or new parts in its own private track, Fiorano, the last one caught on camera by Marchettino was quite strange.

Niki Lauda’s 1975 Ferrari 312T F1 Racer Makes Assetto Corsa Debut [w/Video]

While driving digital interpretations of 1970s Formula One is nothing new, as there have been a series of games catering to this need both officially and through user created mods, most are quite old now and don’t take full advantage of the latest technological improvements.

Ferrari Spied Testing 458 Prototype, Could be Working on Redesign or Replacement

It may look and perform as fresh as it did when it was launched back in 2009, fending off rivals like the McLaren MP4/650S, but the Ferrari 458 has turned five this year and the Italian carmaker isn't a proponent of keeping a model dragging on for years on end.

Ferrari Enzo Drifts in Slow Motion Are Simply Fascinating

Remember the crazy video from mysterious YouTube channel “Tax the Rich” featuring a Ferrari Enzo pretending to be a rally car in the mud? Well, the Enzo is back for a new series of powerslides and hoonage, but this time, the video is played in slow motion.

You’ll probably ask what difference does that make, but I have to admit, it’s a beautiful thing to watch. There’s something fascinating about seeing a Ferrari Enzo doing donuts in an unlikely place in slow motion. I can’t explain it, but then again, I can’t explain why I like watching a burning fire either. I just do.

So, without further ado, let your mind unwind by watching the Enzo slowly and spectacularly burn its tires.

Driving a Ferrari F12b Legally at Over 300km/h in Germany

After seeing the result of the Ferrari F12berlinetta crash in the Netherlands (not Belgium as initially reported), it’s nice to see one of these front-engined supercars on the road, going fast and not sliding off, hitting a tree and landing on its side. This video shows a white F12 being driven as fast as possible on a derestricted stretch of German autobahn.

As you may know, slower cars and trucks that are late in changing lanes, and sometimes standing water too, are the two biggest speed-impeding factors when attempting to go flat out in these situations.

However, with 740 hp on tap, the average F12 driver can, with relative ease, get the car up to and just over 300 km/h or 186 mph even with some traffic, as you will undoubtedly have seen upon scrolling down to until after the virtual jump.

It’s actually an enjoyable piece of footage, and luckily the passenger doesn’t need to diagonally film across the car, as Ferrari has gone the extra mile and added a monochrome digital display showing gear, speed and revs just above the glove compartment.

Ferrari Customer Orders One-Off 458 Italia Dedicated to Niki Lauda

The timing couldn’t have been better: just weeks after the premiere of the “Rush” movie that depicts the rivalry between Niki Lauda and James Hunt during the 1976 Formula One season, Ferrari has revealed a very special 458 Italia.

A customer of Ferrari’s Tailor Made personalization program decided to customize his new 458 Italia in the livery that featured on the Maranello F1 cars back in the mid-Seventies, when the Scuderia took three consecutive Constructors’ titles and two Drivers’ – both of them thanks to the very determined Niki Lauda.

The car features a red paint with a white roof that includes the Italian flag going longitudinally across it. The gold rims add to the 458 Italia’s special feel, as do the white painted door sills and front deflectors.

The car was prepared with this exclusive design by the Commercial Department at Ferrari as part of the Tailor Made personalization program, with the collaboration of a personal designer from the Maranello Style Centre.

The interior features the same motif of the Italian flag, which can be seen on the seats and central tunnel. The racing look is underlined by the sports seats with red motif stitching, the dashboard, instrument panel and the steering wheel with LEDs, as well as the F1 type gear shifts.

Ferrari says the mysterious owner of this 458 Italia (which remains standard in terms of performance) wanted to make it unique by “paying tribute to one of the happiest and most productive eras in the history of the Scuderia.” What do you think of it?

Grandpa Tries to Take Grandson Off-Road in Ferrari F12b in Belgium; Tree Blocks Way

The Ferrari F12 Berlinetta has so much horsepower that we’re not even going to mention the exact figure here – it’s a lot for two wheels, no matter how wide, to handle, particularly in the wrong hands. Thankfully, it looks like it’s pretty safe when the imminent crash does happen, as the video below reveals.

It shows the aftermath of a pretty severe-looking accident in Belgium, where a grandfather and his grandson were out and about in the now wrecked F12 – the ahem loaned wrecked F12berlinetta, that is…

Apparently, the older gentleman overcooked one of the corners, and completely unsurprisingly, the back is believed to have broken loose and landed the front-engined supercar on its side, leaning against a tree.

As previously stated, the car withstood the (probably relatively) low-speed crash well, and both the driver and passenger walked away unscathed; physically, that is, as grand pappy’s wallet will never be the same again.

Racing One Tunes Ferrari 458 Challenge Track Racer

Just like apps and phones, there is a tuning application for just about every car in this world, even for Ferrari's menacing 458 Challenge racecar, courtesy of Germany's Racing One motorsports tuner.

If you're lucky enough to own 458 Challenge, Racing One can help you out to improve the Ferrari's 4.5-liter V8 engine lifting output from 562hp (570PS) to 612hp (620PS) before it turns to the chassis and the braking system and suspension components.

The team over at Racing One has also developed an aerodynamics package for the Italian mid-engine supercar with added bits such as the front lip spoiler and canards. You can get a better look at the car in the photo gallery that follows the jump.
