Ferrari F40 Fire
For those who don’t know, the Ferrari F40 is a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive supercar manufactured from 1987 to 1992, with the LM and GTE race car versions continuing production until 1994 and 1996 respectively. It was the successor to the 288 GTO and designed to celebrate Ferrari’s 40th anniversary. Unfortunately, it was also the last Ferrari automobile personally approved by Enzo Ferrari.



This particular F40 was engulfed in flames on a Monaco street, spawning plumes of black smoke very close to an apartment building, prompting one of the residents to use a garden hose in an attempt to put them out. Fortunately, fire crews were nearby and able to put out the burning F40 before any serious damage was done to the structure, but the same can’t be said for the vehicle.
