Why now, exactly, we're not sure. But we're not complaining.
Ferrari has set test driver Marc Gene loose in its California - V8, folding hard-top, big arse, much noise - on the Yas Marina grand prix circuit in Abu Dhabi.
The results are entirely oversteerish. Click through for a couple of minutes of wantonly sideways action, some lightly irritating background music and a well-built gentleman looking very close to vomiting.

You're not supposed to do that with a Ferrari! Well, I guess it's only fitting, as the first 2 2 Ferrari with a V-8 up front, it's only fitting it would be driven like the Yank muscle to which it is similar.
