We drove the roads that usually make up the Ypres rally, it was a blast. Navigating an 812 over these minuscule roads at speed feels a bit surreal but fantastic fun. Finally feel the car is shrinking around me a bit, feeling more confident to throw it around, but it remains a proper handful this thing. One thing I do miss from GT3 times is the connection to the front axle, this one doesn’t communicate at all, you have to trust it grips - it does- but it doesn’t inspire confidence if you don’t feel it through the wheel. The power remains hilarious, with everything switched off you can break traction at will in the first three gears. What a car ❤️

BjoernB:It's called 812 VS
VS as for versione speciale is the internal name from Ferrari for all its special versions until they've decided for the real name.
We're at the point where you can be the fastest or just sound like you're the fastest.
The secret of life is to admire without desiring.

Doesn’t that have some painful memories still?
It's not a Williams 812

Porker:The exhaust setup is a bit strange, but the rest looks brilliant.
This guy's is taking the versatility of the 812 a bit further.

That looks tasteful enough to be a Crayphile order.... Will be interesting to see how independent 4 wheel steering works.... apart from crab-walking?

I've been wearing out the rear tires on my GT3 at an alarming rate on the track (on the outside shoulder, despite extra camber). I'm told it's due to rear axle steering, Maybe Ferrari has found a better way...

Is there mention of the weight saving they managed?

I have been fortunate enough to be offered the Targa version. No mention of a figure on weight saving yet.
