A Villeneuve was back in a Ferrari today. 30 years since Gilles’s death at Zolder, son Jacques has been driving his 1979 312T4 at the Ferrari test track in Fiorano. He was joined by fellow family members, Ferrari personnel and current drivers Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa.
Pictures and video of today’s tribute below.

Actually the SL65 weighs much more than the M6 . M6′s weihgt = 1710 Kg , SL65′s weihgt = 2030 Kg . Mercedes-Benz’s are so heavy , but that negative issue is backed up with a huge amount of power and torque . The SL65 has much more Torque than the M6 , and 100 hp more than the M6 . Despite the weihgt of the SL , it will still be a bit quicker than the M6 . But don’t forget the price difference between the 2 cars guys , the SL65 AMG is much more expensive than the M6 , i think it costs 80 000$ more ..If you spend 80 000$ on modding the M6 , you will have a Rocket that will shake the earth when it’s unleashed lol !
