Last week, photos and news were published on the Haden Cross Fire Station twitter profile that an unknown person crashed into a parked vehicle with a Ferrari SF90 and then fled the scene. It all happened in the suburbs of Birmingham (UK) and the Police are looking for the driver.
Ferrari SF90 is one of the most sought-after collector’s cars, owned by some of the most famous football (soccer) players such as Zlatan Ibrahimović. It is powered by a 4.0-liter V8 engine with 769 hp (566 kW) assisted by three electric motors with 217 hp (160 kW), which increase the total power to 986 hp (725 kW) and 590 lb⋅ft (800 Nm ) of torque. The electric motors are powered by a 7.9 kWh lithium-ion battery that provides a range of 16 miles. Reaches 62 mph in 62 mph in 2.5 seconds with a top speed of 211 mph (340 km / h).
A West Midlands police spokesman said the investigation was still ongoing. The owner of the car was found but they are still looking for a driver. “We’re investigating after a red Ferrari hit a number of parked cars in Hagley Road, Halesowen last night (Wednesday) at around 7:40 pm. We made a search of the area and spoke to a number of witnesses but were unable to locate the driver. The car has been seized and our work to identify and trace the driver continues. ”

What could have caused the accident? There are two most likely scenarios. The first is that the car was stolen and that the thief in an effort to escape, crashed the car. Another scenario is that the driver was under the influence of alcohol and fled to avoid punishment. Whatever the reason, repair will not be cheap. The value of the Ferrari SF90 is estimated at around £ 500,000.
