Too fast for Fiorano! We drive Ferrari's 1200hp F80 hypercar
Just how spectacular is the new Ferrari F80?
This once-a-decade hypercar has the grandest of predecessors: the GTO (aka 288), F40, F50, Enzo and LaFerrari.
Into the pantheon now comes this, the F80, the most technologically advanced road car Ferrari has ever made.
It uses a 3.0-litre V6 making a whopping 888bhp (900hp), to which it adds three electric motors - one at the rear and two at the front - to give a system total of 1184bhp (1200hp).
And it's going after lap times. At five seconds a lap faster around Ferrari's Fiorano test track than a LaFerrari, the F80 becomes so fast that it's the first special Ferrari opted to launch outside its facility.
Join Matt Prior as he tests this €3.1m hypercar at the bigger Misano World Circuit, and on the roads surrounding it.
