Ferrari 458 Challenge 2011
Ferrari 458 Challenge 2011This focused on both the exterior and interior with Ferrari’s engineers concentrating in particular on reducing the thickness of the bodyshell panels and on using lightweight materials, such as carbon-fibre and Lexan. Significant work has also gone into cutting the car’s weight. The 458 Challenge is also equipped with the E-Diff electronic differential already employed on the road-going version, a first for Ferrari’s track-only cars.
That said, modifications have been made to the gear ratios and calibration of its dual-clutch F1 gearbox to guarantee higher torque at lower revs. The direct injection 4497 cc V8 remains strictly in production tune, with an output of 570 hp at 9,000 rpm.
