In the latest episode of Top Gear, Jeremy Clarkson tests the Ferrari 458 Italia on the shows race track. Unfortunately, he only reviews the Ferrari 458 Italia on the track, without any public roads action. We're sure the new 458 Italia is great on the track, but we guess the tricky controls on the steering wheel might cause some trouble while driving on public streets. the video after the jump includes, besides Mr. Clarkson's review of the Ferrari 458 Italia, The Stig's lap in the new model. Top Gear also puts the new 458 Italia against its predecessor, the Ferrari F430 in a drag race. The results are stunning, to say the least.
Watch the Ferrari 458 Italia test video after the jump. In case you still need some pointers regarding the 458 Italia, it's powered by a 5.0 liter V8 that revs to more than 9,000 rpm and develops 570 hp and 540 Nm of torque.
