Bolt vs. Italia

Usain Bolt vs. Ferrari
Do you ever wonder what would happened if you teamed the world's fastest man with Ferrari's fastest V8 sports car? Two sides of speed: one featuring legs, the other featuring wheels. Olympic Gold medalist and World-Record holder Usain Bolt visited Maranello, Italy yesterday to test out a couple of prancing horses on Fiorano, Ferrari's own racing course. He first got passenger rides in the 599 HGTE and the 458 Italia by test-drivers Dario Benuzzi and Raffaele De Simone. Then, Usain had a go in the driver's seat in both cars. He liked both cars, but he loved the 458 Italia.

"It's a little bit like me, very reactive and determined." - Usain Bolt

After he did some laps in the 458, he visited Ferrari's personalization center and met Ferrari's CEO, Amedeo Felisa. It seems that Usain is into getting a Ferrari and based on the videos I've seen, he's a very good driver. I just hope he doesn't wreck one, like he did with his M3.
