One of the greatest and most beautiful supercars ever made, period. It's simply amazing! The 458 Speciale was already God-like and the 488 Pista is another step up from that. Ferrari just keeps on raising the bar. Can't wait to see what Ferrari comes out with next.
@@RadialSeeker113 Mclaren never beats Ferrari around the track its just facts. The Senna is the only supercar Mclaren has made in the 2000's that can do numbers that will evem compete with ferrari. The SF90 Stradale will no doubt be a beast and maybe the quickest car ever made by ferrari
@@RadialSeeker113 Well the 765LT might be slightly faster than 1:10.8 the time the Pista here was on a slightly greasy track so on a more confident lap in good track conditions the Pista probably can manage a sub 1:10, that's a tall order for the new 765LT, ultimately it will probably be a bit faster BUT you have to consider nearly 2 years of engineering progress and the fact that McLaren tune their Riccardo V8 Turbos much higher than Ferrari do and that's obviously at the expense of reliability as seen on nearly all Mcalren cars, Ferrari could easily tune their V8 turbos to over 800hp easily but be less reliable but hey come on... Mclaren mask their hp numbers and even the 720s actually produces near 800hp at the crank so let's assume the 765LT produces around 840hp compared to the Pista's 710hp of course on similar tyres with 2 years extra development the 765LT will be faster, that's a no brainer BUT the question is could it beat the Pista if it only had 710hp? I doubt it would.

Steve Sutcliffe, Chris Harris, Dickie Meaden and Henry Catchpole are the best journos. They bring these cars to life. Without these guys they're just cars.
Could it possibly be a little bit faster??? A bold claim I know, but I talked to a guy who has a car and he said he thinks the F8 version will be faster. So there. Probably not as fast as the car after the F8 though, so probably best to wait until that's released
@@Malc180s In the latest evo they say that the F8 on cup2 tires is slower but within 0.5 sec of the Pista, so still slower but not by much. The Pista's replacement will be crazy.
@@Malc180s Time will tell, but I think it will be much faster, just like the Pista is much faster than the Speciale, which was much faster than the Scuderia and so on...
Steve do you prefer the gear levers to be on the steering wheel (like in most race cars) or attached to the steering column like in the Pista (requiring you to take your hand off the steering wheel to shift)?
I wonder if that short ratio gearbox would be a hassle on a higher speed circuit. The amount of up/downshifting at Anglesey was considerable, Steve was upshifting during the middle of many corner exits.
Own a McLaren, however not sure how any petrol headed like minded people, can’t agree that this Ferrari is incredible piece of kit, recently tracked my car there, very technical, not sure why they don’t use the full circuit 🤔
@@drepark2294 Still, the track was damp and Steve said there is another 0.5s in it. The car is just better, mid engine will always be better than rear engine, no matter what trickery Porsche will use to mask the inferior engine placement, can't cheat physics.
arekb5 dude I can see you are a Ferrari fan, let me tell you how these test go, Ferrari supply these test with “press cars” specifically designed for the test. They supply one car for track work and another for acceleration test. They show up to every test with a shit load of engineers and basically tell the reviewer what to say. This has been documented over and over. The same reason why the acceleration of the Pista is quicker in test but a video of a customer car racing a 720s it lost and the member was banned from Ferrari chat. Ferrari makes great cars but they prep them to never lose or else they wouldn’t be invincible and people like you would think less of the brand.
False. First of all, all supercars usually come with a team of engineers. They don't "require it", they are just there because someone has to deliver the car and make sure it's treated properly, and then take it back to the factory. These cars aren't delivered by being driven on the road across the continent, they come on trucks. Secondly, the 488 Pista has already proven to be the fastest supercar out there on track so this result is no surprise. It beat the 720S, 911 GT2 RS, Lamborghini Huracan Performante, etc. in every comparison test by multiple journalists all over the world. Yes, even WITHOUT the engineers. Wanna see an example of that? Go to the french Motorsport Magazine videos and watch their test from earlier this year, where the Ferrari 488 Pista they had was a registered costumers car lent to them, with like 14000 km's on the clock already, and the Mclaren 720S and Porsche 911 GT2 RS were factory delivered cars with teams of factory engineers with them, and the 488 Pista wiped the floor with them on Magni-Cours anyway. It didn't even have brand new tires on it.
Joel Schembri so you are now comparing a Senna, a limited a edition car that priced 120% more to a Pista? 🤣🤣🤣 thats some cry of desperation right there
@Joel Schembri And this one sounded like it was shorter geared than normal. No way a twin turbo car spools up that fast. Hence, all the short shifting in corners by Sutcliffe.

Love McLaren but Ferrari did this car proud the beauty to detail is just magnificent and performance is just bang on for them switching back to turbocharging just shy of the 720s speed but cornering and handling is better

I think the longest I've gone without seeing a mclaren whether it's a mp4 a 650 or a 540 or 570 in various states of tune is about 3 or 4 days , even when I first saw a p1 at a show it just wasnt different enough to stir any excitement from me

Impressive! But I always take these Ferrari times with a grain of salt. Behind the scenes I'm sure there is 20 Ferrari engineers and a couple of spare Pistas.
Dan Butler @ watch the Magny record video, with a customer car 😂😂I m sorry but that thing with chris is getting old, always when a Ferrari is faster, I wonder is it a press car🤔😂
Seems like you lose some time in two corners because you hit the gas too early, lift off and hit the gas again. Looks like the mid corner speed is too low so you push it into understeer trying to make up for that.
Incredible! Sure the McLarens are great machines and in a straight line drag the 720S can beat the Pista, however, the Ferrari is a superior car on the track(Pista).To beat the GT2RS is quite an accomplishment. Is there a link to the Leaderboard times?
So this is what the Ferrari engineers were doing in the first half of the F1 season
they modify Pista to pass 720s now they are on F1 :)

Wow..The Pista is clearly faster on every circuit than the huge winged gt2 rs which every one bang about so much..And the 720s has like 800hp and a carbon tub so it's no suprise it's that fast..
And yet the 720s is slower on every track, it is faster only on a straight line
Why are you saying that 720 has 800 power, where does this information come from?
From a big Ferrari fan...perfect review for a perfect car, seriusly THE perfect car for a trackday...BUT, the sound...i miss so much that sound...and if i can buy just one supercar in my life i want a big sound engine...lfa, 430 scud, mercedes amg gt, lamborghini huracan...
If you hear a Pista in real life you will not complain about the sound believe me.
Imagine the new Tributo with pista specs...
Awesome!, but the shifts looks scary and not perfect. When you have to let go of the steering wheel :(..
what?.. damn that's crazy
@4:33 and @4:56 and @5:28 and @5:35 And @5:48 did you take your hands of the steering wheel to shift UP?
Yes you did....Why arent the paddle placed on the steering wheel??
Why do they still do this??? It just does my head in
My love 488 spider
I hope the E-Pista sounds that good. Oh...
Impressive! But I always take these Ferrari times with a grain of salt. Behind the scenes I'm sure there is 20 Ferrari engineers and a couple of spare Pistas.
Dan Butler @ watch the Magny record video, with a customer car
😂😂I m sorry but that thing with chris is getting old, always when a Ferrari is faster, I wonder is it a press car🤔😂
@@droptopdan actually at Magny Cours the Pista was a customer car and the Mclaren was a press car, and Ferrari obliterated it.
That’s why you should look at Sport auto or auto Bild times who actually dump and weigh the cars they get
jeez that's rapid
Seems like you lose some time in two corners because you hit the gas too early, lift off and hit the gas again. Looks like the mid corner speed is too low so you push it into understeer trying to make up for that.
SF 90 tech maybe for replacement...
Incredible! Sure the McLarens are great machines and in a straight line drag the 720S can beat the Pista, however, the Ferrari is a superior car on the track(Pista).To beat the GT2RS is quite an accomplishment. Is there a link to the Leaderboard times?
GT2 RS wasn't on a R tire like Pista. Neither was 720S. Now that LT is out will Pista be called superior.
Bac mono style the King!
ok, i want a pista now
This thing sounds better than the current GT3 race car.
it's a monster...
