After reports of a third Ferrari 458 Italia going up in flames and more accidents in these vehicles than you’d generally expect, Ferrari has finally released some sort of a statement as to what it’s doing about the situation. Before the crisis gets out of PR hands, Ferrari has indicated that there has been a total of nine accidents with the 458 Italia recently.

According to the company, six of the nine incidents could most likely be attributed to driver error, while for the vehicles that catch alight, Ferrari is starting investigations as to whether any technical error could be at fault. A spokesperson has said: “I am not in a position to comment on the vehicle fires and all we can say is we are taking it obviously very seriously.” We can’t imagine it would be very pleasant to see your brand new 458 Italia get redder than expected.
