$4 Million Ferrari Daytona SP3 Involved in London Accident
Read the full story on Modern Car Collector
A Ferrari Daytona SP3, valued at an eye-watering $4 million, was recently spotted in London following an accident that has likely marked the first such incident involving the hypercar. The damage was visible on the front end of the vehicle, with the cracked bumper and splitter, scratches on the nose, and a hole in the carbon fiber panel below the headlight. The grille in the lower bumper section also appears to have sustained significant damage.
The particular Daytona SP3 involved in the crash has garnered attention from enthusiasts for its previous appearance at the Heveningham Concours in 2023. Finished in a striking Rosso Libano exterior with matte black wheels, this vehicle is no mere collector's item; it is regularly driven and reportedly pushed to its limits.

The Daytona SP3, powered by a 6.5-liter V12 engine sourced from Ferrari's 812 Competizione, produces 850 horsepower and is mated to a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. This powertrain is known for its exceptional performance, but it appears that, in this case, the driver may have pushed it a bit too aggressively. Given the rarity and value of the car, this incident will certainly fuel further discussions among Ferrari enthusiasts and collectors, especially those watching the Daytona SP3's performance on the streets.
While the damage is significant, the car's unique design and performance capabilities make it a standout in the world of supercars. Ferrari's attention to detail and craftsmanship are likely to restore the car to its original condition, though this accident serves as a reminder of the risks even the most prestigious vehicles face on the road.

F1 Spanish GP: Charles Leclerc–Max Verstappen incident results in no further action
The FIA race stewards have taken no further action against Charles Leclerc for making contact with Max Verstappen in Formula 1's Spanish Grand Prix - meaning the Ferrari driver has retained his podium position. On a lap 61 safety car restart, Verstappen lost momentum with a huge oversteer moment out of the final corner as he tried to get his hard tyres up to speed against drivers around him on softer rubber. Advertisement That opened the door for Leclerc to pull alongside and overtake Verstappen, but then the Monegasque appeared to slightly move towards the Dutchman's car while they were still alongside, something Verstappen felt Leclerc should have been penalised for. The stewards held a different view and noted both drivers were moving towards each other, leaving it as a racing incident with neither party fully to blame. "The Stewards heard from the driver of Car 1 (Max Verstappen), the driver of Car 16 (Charles Leclerc), team representatives and reviewed positioning/marshalling system data, video, timing, telemetry, team radio and in-car video evidence," the stewards wrote. "Car 1 lost traction while navigating Turn 14 and therefore had to defend his position on track against Car 16. Car 16 proceeded to move to overtake Car 1 on the start-finish straight. Both cars were moving slightly towards each other in the middle of the track and a minor collision occurred as a result.

In the circumstances, we took no further action." Verstappen eventually finished 10th after a 10s penalty for colliding into George Russell, while Leclerc claimed third behind the two McLarens of Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri. Verstappen's penalty came with three penalty points on his licence, leaving him one point away from a race ban between now and the Austrian Grand Prix at the end of June.

Hamilton passed by Leclerc and Hulkenberg in another low point since joining Ferrari
MONTMELO, Spain (AP) — Lewis Hamilton's frustrating debut season with Ferrari hit a new low point during the Spanish Grand Prix on Sunday. A sixth-placed finish wasn't bad, even for a seven-time world champion. But Hamilton again finished behind teammate Charles Leclerc, who was third, and had to endure his team telling him to get out the way for Leclerc. Worse was to come near the end, however, when Nico Hulkenberg overtook Hamilton in his Sauber. Hamilton said his car was unbalanced. 'I have no idea why it was so bad,' Hamilton said. 'That was the worst race I have experienced, balance-wise.' The only bright spot for Hamilton since he left Mercedes for Ferrari this season was his sprint win in China. That, however, was followed by a double disqualification for him and Leclerc in the Grand Prix the next day. His best race finish this season was fourth in Imola. ___

Hamilton passed by Leclerc and Hulkenberg in another low point since joining Ferrari
MONTMELO, Spain (AP) — Lewis Hamilton's frustrating debut season with Ferrari hit a new low point during the Spanish Grand Prix on Sunday. A sixth-placed finish wasn't bad, even for a seven-time world champion. But Hamilton again finished behind teammate Charles Leclerc, who was third, and had to endure his team telling him to get out the way for Leclerc. Hamilton was blocking the much faster Leclerc over several early laps until the team order came over the radio. Worse was to come near the end, however, when Nico Hulkenberg overtook Hamilton in his Sauber. Hamilton said his car was unbalanced. 'I have no idea why it was so bad,' Hamilton said. 'That was the worst race I have experienced, balance-wise.' Oscar Piastri won Sunday's race. The only bright spot for Hamilton since he left Mercedes for Ferrari this season was his sprint win in China. That, however, was followed by a double disqualification for him and Leclerc in the Grand Prix the next day. His best race finish this season was fourth in Imola. ___ AP auto racing:
