Simple case of running out of talent.

And driving like a tit in a built up area obviously.

[Impasse]

Up until that point they were looking very cool. Really, they were. Especially the bloke perched in the back wearing the vest top and dodgy shorts. Allure personified.

[Driver101]

What a numpty.

[Durzel]

Mercifully it was at relatively low speed, and no one else was involved.

Looks like he could easily have come a cropper earlier with his violent steering and cluelessness about accelerating in a powerful RWD car whilst turning.

[Jasandjules]

I assume he just thought he'd put the power down whilst cornering and it would be fine?!

[btdk5]

What is that panel that came loose at 2mins? Bit shoddy.

Car sounds lovely though.

It looks like it could be a Ferrari employee in the front seat so it's possibly a paid for drive at Ferrari, though admittedly they don't usually let clients drive that fast through urbanised areas.

[Mastodon2]

What a bunch of morons. I suppose the damage excess for a Ferrari test drive is probably pretty heft too.

[HaloGen8]

Ha ha and it was a test drive too!!

[anonymous-user]

you would look like hitler sitting in the back of that..

[mebf47]

They're speaking Italian. The guy on the passenger side just keeps saying "I told you 'slowly', ****".

This my favourite Ferrari crash, because of the mincey bloke narrating.

As soon as I saw it was damp, I knew what was going to happen. WHY don't people put power down gently in the wet and only in a straight line!??

Oh, and is everyone going round switching off the TC of these cars?!

[iva cosworth]

Did he go straight on from a left turn only lane at about 1.45 ?

It's a cover for part of the roof mechanism. My mates wife managed to break the same piece on their loaner when her handbag strap somehow got tangled up and when she tried to put the roof up, the cover hinge got a bit bent

Can't play video, no 3G, but is that one of the rentals from near the factory/museum in Maranello?

Only say that from the camera, looks like the souvenir video, and the seat covers!
