A stock M5 F10 also managed to stay neck a neck and even overtake the 458 over 220. Noone could really understand what happened. 458 are pretty rare here, especially any that frequents these events.

The 488 on the other hand is also slower here than in the rest of the world. The 488 lost to the 991.2 Turbo S stock from 100-250 on highway professional tests. Don't know why or how that happened but it did.
It’s the gas in Brazil. Ferraris are highly sensitive to fuel content and octane.
