FXXK EVO @ Bahrain

First time driving this car. BIg step up on the already great FXXK. Ferrari has really deliverd and added everywhere it matters.

[@AutomotiveMike]

The sound is so stunning!

[@pofan123]

6:40 Look at that old Enzo flying!!!

[@AlexanderWest]

850 bhp and a lot lighter. Not bad huh

[@Nickoboss29]

It'a an fxx

[@carscoffeeandcannabis-634]

@@AlexanderWest I didn't realize the FKK put out 850bhp, damn. Doesn't that make that engine more powerful than the LAF engine, prior to electric power?

[@rekordea]

That's... the FXX.

Thank you Alex as always🏁🙏😍

[@Luke94piano]

Just discovered the channel. As an Italian guy born in Bologna this is insane! Thanks for the contents Alex, with powerslide you are the best in the HyperCar business! Ps give me a ride in Modena someday, to make my day!😁

[@dscuderia2189]

Bloody crazy reflexes at 6:25 😅👌🏼. I just discovered your channel today and its crazy 🙌🏼. I also love how there's the map of the track in the gauge cluster, soooooo cool ♥️

[@JJTWagenaar]

Once again a terrific video on the FXX-K. Always a joy to see your name pop up in my timeline. Living the life I can only dream about. Saving for a second hand F12/812 are underway :)

[@AlexanderWest]

both great cars. enjoy NA engines while they still exist...

[@ShadowRomeo1784]

The engine sound.. So satisfying to listen...

[@elmadi7391]

Amazing footage , love it..... I just subscribed!

[@fayadfaris5867]

This is seriously unbelievable, I haven't had a chance to even get close to a f1 car yet or anything like this so for you to give us onboard footage of such a car is more than a million dollar experience. Thanks Alex.

[@eichler721]

Are you looking at getting the Valkyrie AMR Pro? I would love to see you tear around a track in it

[@FishFind3000]

Is this a yearly membership thing to do or is it by the race? Is there any prerequisites you need before you can do this? Do they make you work your way up from a 430?

[@user-dj4bo2oc4x]

FXX K it’s heaven on Eath!

[@alexioflexio8818]

is the Evo version that much faster than the standard Fxxk, or was that driver prompted? if so.. impressive. the 599xx seemed like it was standing still.

[@josh1248]

how do you get to drive all these awesome cars?

[@JakeM2628]

6:50 I've never seen that black+red FXX before, I like it! Also, I spent about a minute of my time just watching the rear-view camera. Surely it must take some time to break the habit of looking up at where the rear-view mirror should be!

[@AlexanderWest]

quite normal these days having a rear view camera in race cars. this one has a lot more information than old one

[@chikchikbum]

best car ))

[@semih_gedik]

Please more!

[@FishFind3000]

I see there’s a few different cars out there. Is it a lotto for who gets what car or is it by payment? More money, more car?

[@Retrogamer71]

Well. That was nice.

[@Nick-rx2zu]

I feel he was trying to push the car but it seems like the car was not stable enough as he expected. Nice driving!

[@blackeyes3313]

JUST WOW

[@FishFind3000]

Watching you race compared to everyone else is funny. Your driving like your life depends on it and there out they’re just cruising. I can just imaging there face when you come ripping by.

[@lekkerdinghy]

Great video Alex! Wonderful! What about the old non EVO parts? Would love come pick up some parts if you need to get rid of it :-)!

[@AlexanderWest]

sorry they are going up on my wall.. ;)

[@lekkerdinghy]

Alexander West Awesome!

[@hydrofreeze_2254]

Lol

[@skudaaron1986]

Hi Alex once again great video. Is there much of a difference with the Evo modification to the car. I have heard that the downforce is a lot better in the rear and more stable now.

[@AlexanderWest]

Yes, much closer to a race car now than before

[@ALPHABYTE94]

nice

[@ahmadyassin3182]

Turn on the Ferrari station FM 😀

[@srinitaaigaura]

Hi Alex, on another channel someone who rode on one of them told me the FXXK-Evo was 4-5 seconds faster around COTA than the old FXXK! True? If so it's incredible. And I think the new F1 like steering wheel with every switch and knob in one place would be much better.

[@AlexanderWest]

I would have said 2 to 3 secs. Better Tyre compound, more aero and a little bit less weight all adds up

[@Santosh-ug6lu]

what do you do for a living ? are you a driver for ferrari or?

[@FishFind3000]

Does this car have abs or is just you that controls it. Idk what the race versions are allowed to have.

[@AlexanderWest]

ABS yes, and variable TC, 0-4, i usually drive it on off or 1 depending on track and condition

[@Redwolf-bo5qi]

that gear change sounds amazing. i not a fan of Ferrari's but i like that one

[@ajtheracer95]

Hybrid symphony to my ears.

[@elielmendez]

I remember you saying that the old version of this car and the p1 gtr were both still slower than GT3 cars. Does this upgrade make up the difference?

[@AlexanderWest]

probably, track dependent but probably

[@MaidikIslarj]

@@AlexanderWest Does this have more or less downforce than the GTE's?

[@AlexanderWest]

@@MaidikIslarj a lot less GTE>GT3>GT4/challenge/XX

[@MaidikIslarj]

@@AlexanderWest Wow, with all those aero bits and all those changes I expected the Evo to be on par at least with the GT3s... Thanks for the response, great bit of information!

[@gian9783]

Were You at the finali mondiali Ferrari at Monza some months ago?

[@AlexanderWest]

no

[@existentialopal721]

Question about 2:48 I’m no racing driver, but was it necessary to brake at this turn if it could be taken flat out? (Asking for a friend)

[@AlexanderWest]

Sorry 2.48 is a straight?

[@albertweedsteinthethuggeni7797]

You have mentioned that the fxxk and p1 gtr are similar in terms of performance. With the evo package, is it more capable than the p1 gtr?

[@AlexanderWest]

Don't know, would have to drive them back to back. But the EVO with a new tyre compound is quicker than the non Evo

[@arshmohammed9526]

How many lap did you did here?

[@joeysluijs8893]

do you prefer this steering wheels or the other one in the normal fxx-k ?

[@AlexanderWest]

this is more functional and more race car like with the important functions together

[@FishFind3000]

2:36 sneaky.

[@andrgp2]

Bellissima auto...mancano almeno 350cv dalla 4 in poi... Grazie...

[@markushogberg8130]

Amazing! Just don't really like the steering wheel as much as before.

[@AlexanderWest]

I think it is much better, it is like the 488 GT3 wheel, bit more importantly the KERS settings are now on the steering wheel so makes it a lot easier to see and adjust while driving

[@FishFind3000]

Alexander West it’s not really a wheel tho. Looks more like a controller.

[@markushogberg8130]

@@AlexanderWest I understand that it´s more convenient but from a design point of view I prefer the old one. To be honest, if I had the money to buy a FXXK EVO I wouldn't really mind it though.

[@MrFede1997]

[@albertweedsteinthethuggeni7797]

Damn 100 to 200km/h took 5 seconds

[@seanhart7185]

I'm kind of new to your channel so this might sound dumb. Do you actually work for Ferrari or are you just rich and like to have fun in supercars?

[@AlexanderWest]

I don't work for Ferrari

[@Protein_isgood]

how do you compare its straight speed to the McLaren P1 GTR?

[@projectr2451]

In an old video, he told me the P1 GTR and LaFerrari FXXK are quite similar in straight line speed. Maybe the LaFerrari FXXK Evoluzione is slightly quicker.

[@Protein_isgood]

@@projectr2451 thanks!

[@justina9914]

Is it finally as quick as a GT3 car?

[@AlexanderWest]

depends on track, there is still a weight penalty against GT3 cars...

[@alexioflexio8818]

did some participants just elect to not upgrade their fxxk?

[@AlexanderWest]

Possible but it takes time for them to rebuild the cars

[@paolo2743]

Vi immaginate questa come safety car in F1?

[@roletnabih]

Thanks for awesome video..so you can really feel the downforce ferrari added over standard FXXK?..is it now more fun than 599XXX?...I remember you saying in another video of yours 599XXX is the most fun....

[@AlexanderWest]

Yes combinations of new tyre compound and more aero makes this much more like a race car than the non Evo version. 599 always has a special place for me. And normally I don't get to drive the fxxk as my wife drives it...

[@nguyenthien1181]

I wish the fxxk evo was faster in a straight line

[@Shadowboost]

Is it as fast as the GT3 car, yet?

[@AlexanderWest]

probably, depends on track. Monza for sure
