You know how hard the suspension is on a Ferrari? Hitting a pothole whilst turning would cause the car to jerk, bounce, and probably spin. Hitting a pothole in a normal car is bad enough.

tbh honest if i was your friend i would seriously think about going to the papers.

the council probably kick up a fuss if a corsa is crashed after getting a blow out from hitting a pothole, let alone getting the bill for a new ferrari f430

this is ridiculous, i have driven the f430. its poised and balanced, and packs a lot of technology to just fly off the road cos it went into a pothole. the driver was just going way to fast
