Based on the 296 GTB hybrid road car, the new Ferrari 296 GT3 takes to Portugal’s Autodromo do Algarve as the Italian automaker continues to fine tune the twin-turbocharged 24-valved DOHC 602hp V-6 engine (minus the electrical drive) for a debut at Daytona FL US in 2023.

I would never chase a man, but if he’s monegasque, 5’10”, 25 years old and a racing driver, I might jog a little bit.

If you think your f1 team is a washed up useless group of clowns still basking in the long gone glory please remember that Ferrari managed to built the car in a way that the slow speed of the formation lap was read by the system as an issue with the actual car and went "OOPS PROTECTION MODE! NOW GO TO SLEEP ENGINE!" and then it crashed out

Who would have thought that out of Sebastian’s ex-teams it would be Ferrari doing a cute gesture and not the team that he won 4 championships with/for.

Xavi this is...embarassing.
It just showcases all the communication problems we see time and time again with the Ferrari pit wall
Xavi mis-hears "last lap" as "fastest lap" - which, to be fair, isn't too big of a faux pas - but the real concerning sign about Ferrari pit wall communication is what he says next.
Charles asks two things: 1. Is it the last lap (so I don't push on and get disqualified), and 2. Is George okay (Is my friend and colleague alive).
All the other engineers either reported without needing to be prompted that George was okay or had an answer ready when asked.
Xavi replies that he in effect doesn't know about George, pauses, then says "Yes."
Is he saying YES it is the last lap? Or YES, George is okay?
It's one of the first things they teach you not to do in communication - answer a double-question with a single affirmative or negative. Eventually Xavi says that George is okay but he never really answered the last-lap question in a way that was clear-cut.
This is a 15-second-plus communication that should have taken five.
