“Bellissimo” speaks for itself really, as a lucky journalist gets a tour of the Fiorano track with Fernando Alonso at the wheel of a Ferrari 458 Italia. Apart from the fun the two clearly have, hearing that Ferrari rumble makes us jealous (did we say “very”?). Anyone who is the fortunate owner of a Ferrari will realise that this is how it should be driven (F1 capabilities aside). Through the giggling of the journalist, we can see why Fernando Alonso has been confirmed as a Ferrari F1 driver through to 2016. In the journalist’s words “che spettacolo”!
This video features a track drive of the Ferrari 458 Italia, complete with the 458 engine noise and some exciting editing (see the view over the engine out the rear, for instance). Believe me, you’re going to watch this more than once. To check out more pics of the Ferrari 458 Italia see the world premiere gallery, live 458 pics from Frankfurt and the official gallery with full press details.
