Ferrari F12 Berlinetta Piloted by Scuderia Drivers on Track
The newest car from Ferrari, the F12 Berlinetta, was finally tested by members of the international media this week, and for some extra show, Ferrari brought out drivers Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa to show off the cars capabilities on the track.
Touted as the fastest car to ever come out of Maranello, the F12 Berlinetta uses a V12 engine that makes a walloping 730 hp and 508 lb-ft of torque, while helping the F12 deliver up to 30 percent better fuel economy. The powerplant is mated to a seven-speed, dual-clutch gearbox that helps the exotic hit 60 mph in a mere 3.1 seconds. Its top speed is rated at 211 mph.
Ferrari also recently released a large set of new photos of the car, showing off its stunning good looks.
