Insanity.
"It had been rumored that the Enzo’s replacement would eschew the traditional V-12 powerplant in favor of a direct-injected, twin-turbo V-8, but that won’t be the case: the F70 will likely use the same 6.3-liter V-12 as the F12 and FF gran turismos, but in a much more powerful guise. In F70 tune, that twelve-cylinder should produce about 800 hp, and it will also be paired with KERS (kinetic energy recovery system) driveline that includes a 120-hp electric motor. That motor allows zero-emission travel under light load, but can also assist the V-12, bringing the car’s net power output to 920 hp. "
It's their shot at the Veyron and it should be successful all thing considered:
"Since the weight target of the carbon-fiber supercar was clearly inspired by the Millechili (1000 kilogram, 2200 pound) concept, the F70 should come close to the track-only FXX, which weighed just 2550 pounds. Despite the carbon fiber body, Ferrari is planning to use copious amounts of aluminum – including an aluminum chassis – to keep construction complexity down. Ferrari wants the F70 to be quicker off the line and faster overall than the 1001-hp Bugatti Veyron."
