The driver of this Ferrari 488 Pista had some trouble handling the twin-turbo V8.
Pista has a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 pumping out 710 hp. That is a lot of power, especially if you’re an inexperienced driver. After hitting the throttle, the rear tires of the Ferrari immediately lose traction and the car begins to slide to the left. The driver is unable to balance the throttle and control the slide and instead overcorrects, sending the 488 to the right. It then slides up a curb, through a patch of grass, and slams into a steel fence on the side of the road.
Making things even worse is the fact that the car was apparently just a single day old at the time of the crash. We don’t have a complete idea of how much damage the car sustained in the crash but it inevitably suffered some significant wheel and suspension damage when jumping the curb while both the front and rear fascias also took some heavy hits.
