Ferrari reintroduces physical buttons in interior rethink
Ferrari says it made a mistake by replacing physical buttons with haptic controls on its steering wheels, and it will reverse the decision across its range.

The haptic tech was first introduced in the SF90… Continue reading Ferrari reintroduces physical buttons in interior rethink

With an uncertain outcome, whoever has the stronger nerves in the long… Continue reading German FAZ: What if this rivalry gets out of control? 009556

Krief: The engineering guru who swapped Ferrari for Renault
A successful one, admittedly – young Krief was rolling around in the back of DS Citroëns and had a soft spot for his father’s Peugeot 504 coupé (the Pininfarina one, he reminds me), so delectable metal was on the scene. But it wasn’t the impetus. Engineering was the job he always wanted to do, “so I… Continue reading Krief: The engineering guru who swapped Ferrari for Renault
German FAZ: Anyone who McLaren again for the winning team Formte009546
The Frontmannzak Brown is a “Mistkerl”. Finds Christian Horner, the team boss of Red Bull Racing. He said so at Netflix. And whether he called him English “Cunt” what the makers of the Formula 1-soap opera “Drive to Survive” seemed so ordinary that they were said to have weakened it after “Prick”, or not: the… Continue reading German FAZ: Anyone who McLaren again for the winning team Formte009546

Eighties excess: Ferrari F40 meets Porsche 959
Blockbuster supercar showdowns are rare and always momentous occasions. Typically coming perhaps only once a decade, comparisons of the latest boundary-pushing feats of incredible engineering never fail to excite and inspire. And one of the greatest of all appeared in Autocar in the summer of 1988: Ferrari F40 versus Porsche 959. Despite them appearing at first glance… Continue reading Eighties excess: Ferrari F40 meets Porsche 959
Pagani power for peanuts – why now is the Mercedes CL65’s time
An autumn day in 2003. The job was a good one: compare a Bentley Continental GT with a Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG. I must confess I went into it carrying something no road tester should: prejudice. Not nationalistic prejudice, or brand prejudice – more a suspicion that this rakish new Bentley, with its W12, all-wheel drive,… Continue reading Pagani power for peanuts – why now is the Mercedes CL65’s time
