Ferrari F40 driven by Nico Rosberg

The Ferrari F40 is one of the icons of the Italian manufacturer and the latest model to be personally approved by Enzo Ferrari. One such F40 was driven by Nico Rosberg, a former Formula 1 driver, along the Mediterranean coast, to thank over a million of his subscribers on the YouTube channel.

In the late 80’s, Emzo Ferrari created the 288 GTO Evoluzione, but they got banned by the FIA ​​for that kind of racing. Since they had a finished car, Enzo decided to make the fastest road car of all time (323 kph). After fourteen months of development, the F40 was presented to the public on July 21, 1987 in Maranello. It is powered by a 2.9-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with 476 hp (350 kW) that pushes the car to 62 mph in 4.2 seconds. Although it was initially planned to produce only 400 units, due to high demand, 1,311 F40 models were produced.

What a ride it would be if the former world champion did not take the opportunity and show his skills. Like a child in a candy shop, excited but cautious, he got into the car. Coming out on the open road, he squeezed the gas pedal, and the adrenaline rushed. Luckily, there were no other cars on the road, so he prepared an unforgettable experience for his co-pilot (videographer).

The ride did not take long because the car was not his. He borrowed it from a neighbor. On his way back to the garage, he went through a red light and caused a traffic jam in one of the narrow streets.

Mo Salah’s car collection

One of Liverpool’s best, but also the most expensive players has unveiled a new car in his collection worth £ 370,000 (around £ 160,000 at the time of purchase). Mo Salah’s car collection is richer for the Bentley Continental GT which is a favorite among Premier League players, after the Range Rover Sport SVR.

Like Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Salah drives a Lamborghini Aventador. It is the most expensive car in the collection of the Egyptian and it costs £ 271,000. Salah is also a big fan of Mercedes. In his garage you can find the AMG GLE Coupe (£ 65,000) as well as the SLS AMG Roadster (£ 176,000).

When he started his career, Salah bought a Toyota Camry and set aside £ 29,000 for it. It was the vehicle with which he began to “create” an expensive garage, reports The Sun.

Another vehicle Salah uses is the Audi Q7 that Salah bought after returning from England to England, in a Liverpool jersey. It costs him around £ 54,000.

Hennessey has introduced the fastest car with a Christmas tree

Hennessey has introduced the fastest car with a Christmas tree, the Audi RS6 Avant with 800 HP. With a Christmas tree on the roof and Spencer Geswein behind the wheel, John Hennessey’s wife’s car reached 183 mph (295 km / h), which was enough to make it the fastest.

“This was a fun way to complete our high-speed testing with the Venom F5. Finally, who needs a reindeer when your wife drives an 800-hp sleigh?” said John Hennessey.

In 2019, the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk SRT with over 1000 hp became the fastest car with a Christmas tree, reaching 181 mph (291 km / h). Many were trying to set a new record, and the closest to that was the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500. Shelby reached almost 186 mph (300 km / h), but it has not been recorded (and published), so the official record remained in the hands of the tuned Jeep.

A few months ago, John Hennessey tested his Porsche 911 Turbo S with 760 hp (559 kW). It reached 175 mph (282 km / h), but that was not enough.
