Learn more about the Ferrari F1 three-seater used at Fiorano for training sessions. Here’s the story and spy photos.
The Ferrari F1 three-seater has been the subject of much discussion for at least four years. Now we have new spy photos. These photos were taken on a cloudy Fiorano Circuit near Maranello in Italy earlier this month.
The car, nicknamed the “Marlboro Red Rush”, is used at the Marlboro Red Racing School near Ferrari Headquarters. Two car enthusiasts can sit beside and behind the driver while it cruises around the track. The facility allowed guests to learn about off-road rallying from the inside of a Fiat Panda.
The car can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h (62 MPH) in just 2.9 seconds. It can also reach 300 km/h(186 MPH) in 13 seconds. Finally, it can top out at 325 km/h (220 mph). The car is based on the Formula One F2002 653 chassis and has an 800 PS (789 horsepower / 588kW) engine. It revs at 17,000 rpm. It measures just over 5 meters in length and is 1.8 meters wide. It can carry 50 liters of fuel and weighs in at 845 kilograms.
