welcome everybody I have some news for you.
Frankfurt, 10 September
The Ferrari 458 Speciale was officially launched this afternoon at the Frankfurt International Motor Show, by President Luca di Montezemolo and Managing Director Amedeo Felisa and Vice President Piero Ferrari.
Besides this I wanted to talk about what Formula 1 is. I felt like it is important.
 When the French held the first grand prix in 1906, the race organizers, the Automobile Club de France, couldn't have guessed how big their motor sport would become. That first race featured 32 cars on a 65-mile course near Le Mans and took two days to complete. The average speed of the winning car, a­ Renault driven by Hungarian Ferenc Szisz, was 62.887 mph.
­
­From those humble origins, Formula One racing was born, and over the years, it has grown to be one of the most popular sports in the world. Formula racing refers to a class of motor sport defined by open-wheeled, single-seat race cars. Open-wheeled cars have their wheels outside of the car's body, unlike "normal" cars and stock cars, whose wheels are under the fenders. As its name implies, Formula One is the pinnacle of formula racing, featuring the best drivers in the most powerful, technically advanced cars. A Formula One season consists of a series of races, or grands prix, held on circuits across the world. The results of each race are combined to determine two annual championships: the Formula One World Drivers' Championship and the For­mula One Constructors' Championship. A points system decides the champions for a given season. A driver earns points based on how he places in each race. The driver with the most points at the end of the season is crowned champion. a season consists of 15 to 17 races, with the majority of the races concentrated in Europe.­Winning in Formula One brings prestige -- and financial rewards. A driver's salary is established by his contract with the team.a driver can earn a bonus -- perhaps $150,000 or so -- for winning a race. He can also earn a bonus for winning the Driver's Championship. yep.. these were some of the facts about Formula 1 hope you enjoyed see ya all next week ;) bye.

Welcome back!!. Last time we talked about the first car I ever drove, but today I'm going back to sport cars. Here it is 599XX have fun! While based on the 599 GTB Fiorano ,with the same trans axle layout and engine type, this prototype is an extreme track car. It is , exclusively built for use on race tracks, apart from official motorsport competitions, is the synthesis of the most innovative technology. What's new? Internal attrition has been reduced and the maximum revs have been boosted, Particular attention was paid to cutting the weight of the engine unit components and adopting exclusive materials, as in the carbon-fiber used for the intake plenums.The 599XX's aerodynamics were honed in numerous Wind Tunnel test sessions with the result that the car now boasts 280 kg of down-force at 200 km/h (630 kg at 300 km/h). The front underside of the body is completely fired-in and the vents that channel hot air from the engine bay have been moved to the bonnet. The 599XX is characterized by an innovative electronic concept called the 'High Performance Dynamic Concept', The mechanical and electronic systems work together to get the maximum performance from the car under extreme high performance driving, for consistent lap times.
In terms of the bodywork, composites and carbon-fiber have been widely used and the engineers drew on their experience in working with aluminum to reach the weight target. The 599XX comes with slick tyres (29/67 R19 front and 31/71 R19 rear),  specifically developed to maximize stability in cornering and increase lateral acceleration. They are fitted to 19 x 11J wheel rims at the front and 19 x 12J at the rear. Lets look at some Specifications 

VEHICLE TYPE: front-engine, rear-wheel-drive, 1- or 2-passenger, 2-door coupe

BASE PRICE: $1,500,000

Power: 720 bhp @ 9000 rpm
TRANSMISSION: 6-speed automated manual

DIMENSIONS:
Wheelbase: 108.3 in
Length: 188.5 in
Width: 77.6 in Height: 50.5 in
Curb weight: 3350 lb

PERFORMANCE (C/D EST):
Zero to 60 mph: 2.9 sec

Top speed (redline limited): 196 mph

 "Ferrari is the latest manufacturer to claim a lap record on the famed Nurburgring, with the race-ready 599XX. Test driver Raffaele De Simone destroyed the German track in just 6 minutes, 58 seconds".

hope ho guys enjoyed, see ya all tomorrow. bye.

welcome back everybody, hope you had a great week, because mine was kinda boring. luckily i have this blog to write. So i just wanted to start saying that even though I can't drive legally, it doesn't mean that i didn't drive before, in fact I have been driving my grandpa's car over the whole summer, I know what you are thinking and no! i didn't drive over anybody. let me show you guys, the " not new" fiat panda 2a.

Now, before you all start laughing, think that my grandpa is 78 and he does not need a fast or beautiful car,
believe me when i say " this car is full of memories" one of them is when my grandpa used to take me, my brother and our 15 friends around, all of us together stuck in there, it was like a human Tetris and it was so fun! so today she is in the spotlight! she deserves it!.
How you can all see, it is not a new car. It was first offered in the year 1991 up to middle 1991 in Europe but similar models were first produced by an Italian car manufacturer FIAT in 1986. It is really small car and  it only has three doors, its weight is 700kg or 1543lb. You may think that it doesn't go fast... and it really doesn't, its maximum speed is 125km/h or 77m/h the best thing is that most of the times it won't even get to 70km/h, 43m/h ( when my grandpa drives). Its fuel type is petrol and its emissions are really high ( you guessed it). It gets from 0 to 100km/h in 24.7, 62m/h in 24.7 seconds so you accelerate but you almost don't feel it . I used to tell my grandpa to drop off and push the car " I bet you can make it go faster!!", we had such a great time. this model has a fuel capacity of 40 liters, 10.6/ gallons and has a consumption of 5.2l/100k which was pretty good at that time.
They don't produce them anymore so the only way you can get one ( i know you do)  is to buy it from somebody else.. which means " pre-owned". that was it for today's blog, hope you enjoyed, see you all next week,

bye!

Welcome back everybody, I wanted to start this blog with something from my country.. why not..
Let me introduce you to one of the most powerful cars produced by The Italian sports car  manufacturer "Ferrari".
Say hi to this lady: F12 Berlinetta.
Produced in 2012 has won the international Engine of the year Awards 2013 in the best performance and best engine category.
The use of different aluminum allays and various technologies for assembly and connection of components allowed to reduce the weight to 1525 kg and maximise performance efficiency.
The motor and driving seat have been lowered, and the new layout of the suspension and gearbox have allowed to contain the dimension of the rear. It is therefore, shorter, lower, and narrower than the previous v12 coupe.
despite its compact exterior dimensions offers a very high level of comfort.
F12 Berlinetta has a maximum speed of 340km/h, 211m/h it can get from 0 to 100km/h in 3,1 seconds and from 0 to 200km/h in 8.5 seconds.
The design of the f12 Berlinetta is based on the perfect balance between maximum aerodynamic efficiency and elegance of the proportions, typical of a Ferrari v12 engine.
Its line is sleek and low, the design of the side is heavily sculpted which allows the passage of air.
The front is characterized by a mightly mouth which ensures the cooling of the 12 cylinders.
Now lets go with the price.
It starts from 274.000 euros or 360,000 dollars which I think its normal. We know there are cars way more expensive out there. That was is for today's blog hope you liked this recension, leave a comment if you have any question i will try to answer. i leave you guys with a video, bye.
