Salty Floridian you sound like a salty idiot. Tires take seconds to warm up from this type of driving. How do you know they didn’t warm them up?

@@ICEMANZIDANE clearly you dont realize its not all about performance figures. Wtf are you talking about? You have to consider weight, tyres, weather conditions, aerodynamics.... Plus the driver. Both cars have potential to do better lap times(or worse) if you change all of these conditions. Its just the fact that pista is faster, doesnt matter how much faster. That depends on the conditions and even on the type of the track

@@ICEMANZIDANE "Law of diminishing returns", i.e. it takes a gigantic leap in parameters to make a few seconds difference when you're at this level.

[@derbigpr500]

People talking crap about the Ferrari already, despite the fact that literally anyone who's done lap timing with the 488 Pista on every track so far has done records with it.... you want times that matter and are REALLY comparable, all done on the same track, same day, same conditions, same type of tire, same driver who is a professional GT3 race car driver? Here are french Motorsport magazine times done at Magni-Cours this year: 488 Pista 1:44,9 720S: 1:47,0 Huracan Perf: 1:47,5 675LT: 1:48,0 911 GT2 RS: 1:48,7 911 GT3 RS: 1:50,3 Corvette C7 Z06: 1:51,3 AMG GTR: 1:51,8 These times are BY FAR the most representative and realistic, because they were all done with all variables taken out of account and the only differences were the cars. Oh and there are uncut videos of them too, in case you doubt whether the cars were driven properly. (they were, driven as hard as can be) Oh and before anyone says "Ferrari press car", it was the ONLY car on that test that was NOT a press car, it was in fact a costumers private car lent to the Motorsport magazine for the purpose of the test and had some 14,000 km's on the clock on it already, mostly of track driving. It had no support behind it, just showed up and was given to them. On the other hand, Mclaren and Porsche had their factory teams deployed, a bunch of mechanics, they delivered factory non-registered cars, etc. Mclaren even put Trofeo-R's on the 720S, which is a tire that's not even officially available on the 720S as an option.

[@zihaoye2433]

I agree，folks always say lamboare faster than Ferrari around track☹️ And the fact is exactly opposite except the Nurbergring

[@zihaoye2433]

ZappoTan You should check other famous track record. No bias against lambo but they are just not good at corners at all，and we all know 720s and pista can beat any lambo in the straight line. I agree lambo‘s record at nurbergring，but Nurb is not any thing about a car manufacturer

[@gattaca7965]

@ZappoTan Wrong! Lambo has never actually got a time under 7 mins. Those lap times with factory prepped cars and Lambo test driver Mapelli driving are not real lap times. Porsche does the same thing with their Nurburgring runs.

[@zihaoye2433]

ZappoTan Personally I like the design of lambo and I drive a Porsche. But people need to know the sacrifice of aero by the aggressive design of lambo‘s car. And lambo dont have a f1 team which means it lacks some very advanced technology. And I go to the track around me several times Lambo is not the king there. Pista and gt2rs are the top 2 and the perf is No.3 by seconds margin behind

[@jonaohana3376]

I think one of the biggest things folks don’t realize about the pisTa is not only is it easy to drive at the limit , puts out amazing track times etc but the car is actually pretty comfortable even in track mode. I drive mine daily in canyons and it’s way more compliant / smooth than my huracan sto. A lot of track cars will put out great times stripped out and a suspension so tight it will give you back problems but this car does it in style and comfort that’s where the r and d go.

I'm still curious about LaFerrari lap time.

[@lapamful]

The whole hybrid thing was just a gimmick. I love LaF, it's so beautiful it looks like a spaceship but power-to-weight ratio makes it complete shit, honestly. All the manufacturers of the 'holy trinity' have since made non-hybrid cars that are faster. GT3 RS is one second faster than the 918. The 718 is faster than the P1. Batteries are just too heavy.

[@stevenreddy6842]

@@lapamful While your second point is correct, your first point is somewhat incorrect. The current record holder, the Lamborghini Aventador SVJ, has a power-to-weight ratio of ~452 hp/U.S. ton while the LaFerrari has a power to weight ratio of ~687 hp/U.S. ton. The power-to-weight ratio is not a good indicator of performance for track cars. Also, the LaFerrari was not a typical hybrid car, it used their Formula 1 derived Kinetic Energy Recover System, which uses regenerative braking to store energy until a button on the steering wheel is pressed which uses the stored energy to power a motor attached directly to the drivetrain to provide extra power for a short time. The key difference is that button needing to be pressed, it's almost like a Mario Kart boost except at your command. I'd also like to point your attention to the Volkswagen ID.R which has completely destroyed the holy trinity on track with a time of 6:05.336 with a ~559 hp/U.S. ton power-to-weight ratio and it's all electric.

I have the same feelings. McLaren launched the P1 which is insane but now the 720 is also a beast

[@rasharddauvergne342]

@@BladezAndrew its not a video game

[@BladezAndrew]

rashard D'Auvergne idk fam racing sims are supposed to be pretty close to real life now, and I’m just saying I can match this time with the regular 488 gtb in Assetto Corsa, the pista is supposed to have 20% more downforce and has over 700hp I’d say it should be 20 seconds faster, and I guess I wasn’t wrong since the time they got with the GTB was a 7:20, so assuming Assetto is accurate I’d think somewhere in the 6:40s wouldn’t be that crazy, obviously in a sim you can push 100% though without fear of wrecking a $350k car. But you can tell when he kind of lets off at times, or doesn’t push all that much cause he doesn’t wanna wreck, which is fair that’s what i would do too in real life. Just because it doesn’t have a rear wing doesn’t mean that it isn’t still producing massive levels of downforce. Ferrari claimed the 488 GTB was making 700lbs/over 315kg of downforce at 211 mph. That nearly matches the GT2 RS if the pista is making 20% more than the GTB then of course it surpasses the gt2 rs at least on its stock aero setting, if you set it to the max angle of attack then the GT2 RS gets a lot more 450kg, but I don’t think they would’ve done that for the lap as it would slow it down on all the high speed sections which the Nurburgring has a lot of, but maybe I’m wrong maybe they did use max downforce. But the 488 pista is also significantly lighter, it’s under 3000 lbs while the gt2 rs is over 3000 lbs. So again I don’t think it’s THAT crazy to assume they should perform near identical. But sure, call me crazy. Assetto is just a “video game”....... I get it...... I get it......

Same driver (Christian Gebhart) did a 7:05.41 in a 991.2 GT3 RS. If we assume proportional lap time improvement on a factory driver lap (e.g. Kevin Estre's lap in the GT3 RS) the Pista would only do 6:51.14 compared to the GT3 RS's 6:56.4. There are posted lap times at other tracks that seem to indicate the Pista does perform well in terms of lap times, often better than the GT2 RS, but this lap in particular would indicate that the Pista is significantly slower than a normal GT2 RS around the 'Ring.

Not even close to Porsche 911 GT2 RS time of 6:40.33 and GT2 RS is less money... Ferrari needs to step up their game.

[@pauljr.harrington1905]

Karl Leinsing That 6:40 time was achieved with Manthey Racing upgrades. I think the cost to upgrade a GT2 RS to MR-spec would surpass a Pista.

[@KarlLeinsing]

Paul Jr. Harrington Yup... and achieved 6:47 without any mods so still blows away the Pista

[@pauljr.harrington1905]

Karl Leinsing That’s because the Ferrari doesn’t have a giant in-your-face wing and the Porsche has wider versions of the same Cup 2 R tire, with other performance stats being otherwise similar.

[@KarlLeinsing]

Paul Jr. Harrington Justify however you want, but stock to stock the Porsche GT2 RS is faster. In addition... the big wing doesn’t help on the super long straights on the Ring and Ferrari boasts better downforce than 488 GTB. And... the Porsche got the power from a flat 3.8 six compared to V8 Ferrari. Ferrari should have way more power or has capability for more power. Bottomline... Pista is slower. Still a nice car and gorgeous looking... Porsche is just a better track/performance car in this comparison.

There will be another run with this beast and best believe it’s going to hit the mark and become the king of this track The fact that this car is a customer car driven by a the main driver of a magazine company and isn’t really as professional as they come, has no wing on the car and it hit 7 min dead, like seriously now This car produces so much downforce with its design the fact that once again it has no wing like the others and comes up big with its time is bonkers This beast will dethrone the Lamborghini at the top once its ready to go for real Honestly if this thing is that fast and hasn’t been pushed to the pedigree that it can hit who knows how fast this thing can really be around the Ring The F8 Tributo is identical to this Pista and that’s a new generation / successor to the iconic V8 line a - stock machine keeping up with this insanity so just picture how the hardcore version of the F8 will be 😍

[@famaccount479]

@@Andrew-pi6mg Ferrari claims they don't need wings about the aero kit, so a wing will not improve the downforce. And to become the king of the track it need to be more then 20s faster...if you ask me: impossible. Few seconds better, maybe. Over 20s better? No way.

[@Andrew-pi6mg]

kettie tongfuea I didn’t say they needed a wing I said if that was the case this thing would be more mental then it already is Ferrari are the best for Areo without taking away from the design of there cars !!!!! My point is and yes this driver has his badges on his belt, but every other car had a second run with there company / car team being there, to set up the car for peak performance What I am saying is, is the Pista can go a lot faster without any adjustments But if adjustments were made this thing would be ludicrous around the ring

Was denkst du wäre die Zeit vom Ferrari Werksteam? Sehr viel schneller? Ich glaube nicht dass da nochmal ~20 sec. drin sind, lasse mich aber sehr gerne vom Gegenteil überzeugen. Denn min. 06:40 müssten in 2018/19 drin sein für einen oem Sportwagen (488) der hochgezüchtet (Pista) ist.

[@AndyB.69]

@@antol2005 Je nach Fahrbarkeit (Fahrverhalten, persönliches Gefühl für den Wagen,...) und den äußeren Umständen (Wetter) wird ein Profi zwischen 10 und 20 Sekunden schneller sein. Das lässt sich an den anderen Tests der sportauto, z.B. des GT2 RS oder des Performante doch wunderbar ablesen. Zudem hat sportauto nicht die Möglichkeit unbegrenzt zu testen, sondern nur sehr wenige Runden zur Verfügung. Wenn dann z.B. mal das Visier rutscht, dann muss man das halt hinnehmen.
