Edo Competition 700HP Ferrari Enzo
Germany’s Edo Competition is an expert when it comes to modifying ultra-rare exotics so who better to tune one of Ferrari’s fastest and most exclusive cars ever produced – the limited edition Enzo supercar. Squeezing more power from a highly strung engine like a Ferrari V12, where peak power levels are developed at lofty heights of close to 8,000rpm, is no easy task, but somehow the tuners at Edo have managed to churn out more than 700hp 514kW from the stock car’s 6.0L mill. The Edo tuned Enzo...

Ferrari 365 GB/4 Daytona turns 40
While the original 1966 Ferrari 365 was a beautiful car, it was the more focused 1968 365 GTB/4 that garnered most of the attention. This was mostly because of its hard-edged Pininfarina designed body, which was a sharp departure from traditional Ferrari styling at the time. The GT was also famous for its triple win in June 1967 at the ‘24 hours of Daytona’ event, which earned it the unofficial nickname of the Ferrari Daytona. Now, over four decades later, Ferrari has commemorated the...

Ferrari 599 GTB goes up in flames on delivery drive
It was just another day in Martin Bullen’s rather fortunate work life - driving a Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano, and getting paid to do it. Of course, he was driving it to the repair shop, but still, there are worse ways to make a living. And then, while stopped at a traffic light the car made a noise, then burst into flames, destroying the Italian supercar right before his eyes. Bullen was then faced with the difficult call to his boss, made just minutes after firefighters arrived on the scene, too...

Ferrari F1 to sell hybrid KERS system to customer teams
Force India looks set to step up its relationship with Ferrari for 2009. Not only will the Silverstone based team continue to use a customer engine built by the famous Italian marque next year, Force India is reportedly planning to run a KERS kinetic energy-recovery system that is also developed by Maranello based Ferrari. “We will run a Ferrari engine and the electronics of Magneti Marelli,” team co-owner Vijay Mallya, apparently referring to the introduction next year of a system that will...

Ferrari launches site for new GT, 10 days until preview
Despite its position at the apex of consumer and motorsport automotive technology, Ferrari has largely shied away from doing serious business via the technological medium of the new millenium: the internet. That’s all changing, as Ferrari has launched a preview website for a new Grand Tourer model to debut at the Paris Motor Show, with previews due in ten days’ time. The countdown clock on the website helps build anticipation, but nothing serves to whet the appetite of automotive aficionados...

Ferrari plots return to coachbuilding
Ferrari is planning a return to its coachbuilding heritage this year, catering to wealthy clients who desire something a little more exclusive than the ‘off-the-shelf’ Ferrari products. According to AutoWeek, the Italian sports car manufacturer will collaborate with at least three of its most trusted design houses: Fioravanti, Pininfarina and Zagato. Ferrari is hoping to cash in on the clients and collectors looking for independent designs that sit on Ferrari mechanicals, the result of which...

No more Marlboro logos for Ferrari
It is likely that a cigarette brand will never again be outwardly visible on the livery of a formula one car. Other teams - notably Renault, McLaren and Honda - farewelled their tobacco-fuelled dollars a couple of years ago, as anti-advertising laws swept Europe and the world. Ferrari, however, opted to renew its association with Philip Morris, and until recently has been displaying Marlboro logos where possible, including in places like Monaco and China. But at the recent Bahrain grand prix, where...

One-two finish for Ferrari at Bahrain GP
Felipe Massa, after two disastrous opening races and under intense pressure to finally perform, snatched the lead from Robert Kubica before the first corner, and the dominant Brazilian was never challenged as he opened his 2008 points account on a circuit he also won on last year. Kimi Raikkonen, in contrast, has looked off-colour all weekend, but the margin to Massa at the end was just a few seconds, and he leaves the Kingdom with the championship lead. Click ahead for a full team-by-team rundown of...
