The Ferrari F80 Concept – Ready for Mach 1?

 

Pininfarina and Ferrari is a forged partnership, synonymous with super cars such as the F12 Berlinetta. For nearly 70 years, Pininfarina has designed close to 200 Ferraris, but for the first time, Pininfarina did not design the premier flagship. With the advent of the La Ferrari, in-house Ferrari designers at Maranello has set the path for the company’s hyper car segment. Can this be a signal to expect Ferrari to pave its own path for future hypercar design? With the rapid evolution and treble increase of horsepower gains within the past decade, can we expect future road cars to reach 767.269 MPH, Mach 1 Speed?

Independent Designer, Adriano Raeli, appears to answer all these questions with the F80 concept. Taking inspiration from Ferrari and Pininfarina, Adriano levels up the design to over 10,000 experience points. At a standstill, the F80 looks ready to take off. The massive inlets give a sense of down force equivalent to the weight of a building. The specifications are modest, but the visuals speak louder than words or conceptual numbers, to say the least.  The top speed is set at 310 Miles Per Hour, but it looks twice as fast.  If engineers can only multiply the performance numbers by 2.5 times, the F80 can surpass Mach 1.
