It's pretty much known by all that the Turbo S is the reigning king of the strip when it even outperforms the 720S. These guys wanted to level the playing field by extending said strip. That 139+ trap is telling how fast the newest 488 is though.

And yeah, until recently, Ferrari has been reluctant to offer test cars at all for these exhibitions. I don't know if its a holier than thou attitude or they're just afraid of having their esteemed clientele see them lose.
