Ferrari 488 Pista specs

Wow, so even the Pista weighs basically 1500kg. So much for Ferrari claiming a 1280kg dry weight and 1385kg kerb weight, both with many asterisks beside it

It is not a rumor. 31 of May Ferrari presents the new car hybrid V8 with 1000ps, only for owners. The rest of the world may be need to wait a few weeks more to see it.

Thought they were gonna do a hybrid V6? The F8 is nearly $300k, so there’s room for a $200k Ferrari.

$200k Ferrari is the Portofino. So will they replace the Portofino with the new hybrid V6? or will it be another category?

But the portifino is a convertible GT. An entry mid engine like a 570s would make sense.

Not V6. V8 turbo+ eléctrico engeine =1000 ps. 550k+VAT. It will be the new top Ferrari, not límited edition.

V8 hybrid is the top end car, we are talking about another car that is rumored to be in development which is supposedly a V6 hybrid.

Ferrari always like to protect their v12 business. The lafferari is still their Halo car, then the f12 tdf and 812. The slowest mid engined car from Ferrari now has 720hp. I’m sure there’s room for a 600hp one

It will be enter with the new Portofino Coupe on July.

on same tires porkey loses and was forgotten by the time the video was about to end lololololol

pista's time on cup2R is extremely slow: it is just 1.4 seconds
quicker than 488gtb. The tires alone should account for that, at the very
least. Same top speed as 600lt has that distictive stink of sandbagging to me.

How is the 991.2 GT3 RS seconds faster then the 991.2 gt3 and the 991.1 gt3 RS but slower on coastal lol I watch the video and the driver totally sandbagged it! Same with the 2Rs and the 600LT. I don’t trust the times coming from coastal and auto.

"Same top speed as 600lt has that distictive stink of sandbagging to me."

driver had to tuck his tummy in order to get in the car, he had a drink or two because that's the nature of british drivers then they start cursing everyone around them, the politicians and the system and bad weather and rains

"Same top speed as 600lt has that distictive stink of sandbagging to me"
Well the acceleration runs did prove the pista is faster in a straightline. Problem is the people testing these cars in this instance (and lots of others to be frank) are not qualifyied to do so. Matt Saunders is a journalist. He may have lots of seat time in fast cars but he is no where near the level of racing drivers (gt3/f1 etc...)
These journalists set out for 5 laps, 2 of them passable, and mark the fastest as a reliable time for this car around the track. FALSE!
You need a consistent, FAST driver to push cars to their limits, not a bloody journalist.

ahahahahahah

i am sure the journalists is not a very competent driver. But why then
he drives these two cars at the same top speed in the straight line? incompetence should take a toll in the track time in any extreme sports car.
In this case he simply did not push pista's pedal as hard as 600lt in that straight line, hardly due to incompetence. The correlation
coefficient between pushing a car's pedal and
car-magazine matching nationality is 1 among germans, americans and most british tests.

For one reason it is easier to get closer to the limit of performance in a less powerful car (a hypothesis ive had for many years as to why porsche seems to perform well with journalists: its easy to drive fast). Maybe the 600Lt is more manageable for an average driver, and he could get on the power sooner or braked a bit later. Not trying to make excuses for this ...

maybe, but what you are saying should hold with any journalist.
however, porsches happen to be faster with german journalists, mclaren with british journalists and corvettes/vipers with american journalists. Ferrari R&D probably spent 90% of their resources in making their cars more exploitable at the limit by average drivers in the last 2 decades. all the manettinos' settings exists just for this reason. They even encouraged avaerage journalists (e.g. Lago) to time a fast lap
in Fiorano to prove how fast their cars can be driven without being a pilot.

question: why gt3rs and not gt2rs?
