He's driving.

If I'm not mistaken, they gave that Ferrari to him.

Seems to be really slow considering it's a Ferrari.

Kobe is too scared to really see what that machine can do.

He is driving like a grandma in that video,

He isn't a professional driver. Who are you comparing him to? Ayrton Senna? :lol

That's an F12, crazy car, he seems comfortable driving it too, I guess it's because he has been driving his 458 a lot.

Looks like a LaFerrari to me. Which is one of the new hyper cars in the world.

Lets put it this way....Ferrari won't sell this car to anyone. They only sell the car to long time customers. A rich dude can't just walk in to a Ferrari dealership and ask to buy it. Like a credit check, they run your history of Ferrari buying to determine if you can buy one.

I don't know if Ferrari is letting people drive a LaFerrari like that and letting them drive it on their famous factory track.

I believe this may have been Kobe's car in the IG video. He probably just bought it and went there to drive it before it gets shipped out.

They are not giving him a FXX.

I'm pretty sure they gave him a LaFerrari for free.

Maranello, 24 July 2016 – Kobe Bryant, the great star of Los Angeles Lakers, made a whirlwind visit to Maranello, where he tested the F12tdf on the track and the GTC4Lusso on the road. When visiting the factory, Kobe also took interest in the cars’ design, manufacturing and personalization aspects, as well as in Ferrari’s history and values. The end of his visit was marked by the classical picture on the track, in front of the building that houses Enzo Ferrari’s office,
flanked by the Ferrari California T and the 488 GTB. A legend paid a visit to another legend.

It's a modified version of the F12, LaFerrari is an amazing piece of engineering no doubt, but the F12 is made to be equally good on both road and track. I think that's why Ferrari had him test the F12tdf to see how a casual Ferrari driver would feel on track.

Did the Ferrari writers get their own shit wrong? That's the Ferrari FXX K.

Who said anything about him getting a free Ferrari?

It sure looks like the FXX K, I guess he tested both but the article didn't mention it.

True. I wouldn't expect that mistake/omission on Ferrari's own website though.

Nice, thats how i would spend time with my rich arse if i was Kobe... :)

However, some really beginner like racing there, he needs somebody to teach him proper rev matching & down shifting for such race tracks, you dont do that during cornering like Kobe did there... ofcourse he isnt gona be a pro racer, but it isnt just to cut down time & make it hellava more fun, its for safety aswell.
