To make things worse, the car isn’t yours. In fact, you’re a Ferrari technician, and you’ve just seriously wrecked the highest-mileage F40 in the world. That’s exactly what happened on January 16th in the UK, and there’s a video of the horrifying accident that’s one of the worst unforced automotive errors ever.

A Ferrari F40, one of the most iconic supercars in automotive history, met a dramatic end during a routine test drive. A video that surfaced online captures the precise moment the car lost control, leading to a spectacular crash that has left car enthusiasts reeling.

It's been a rough couple of weeks for owners of the iconic Ferrari F40. Last week one of the multi-million-dollar exotics met what looked like its end in a drizzly crash where it flipped over and met a lamppost along the way. Now it's another car, this one belonging to Lando Norris, though the Formula 1 driver was not the one behind the wheel.

If you want to avoid putting your vintage supercar into a ditch, there are a couple of things to look out for.

The whole clip is seven seconds long, but even that oversells how long it takes events to unfold. It opens with the Ferrari headed straight down the highway, and before we even have time to get a feel for the scene, the F40 is already sideways. How? I’ve got three words for you: lift-off oversteer.

Norris reportedly bought the F40 in 2024, according to The Daily Mail, so he had little time to enjoy it before this crash. Hagerty currently values the model at $2.4 million in good condition, and prices can be even higher for pristine examples.
