The Ferrari F12 TDF pays a homage to the Tour de France, a legendary road race held in France dominated in the 50's and 60's by the Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta, which won four consecutive races. Being produced as a high-performance car, speed and cornering were the priority on the engineers' agenda. The bodywork was built with carbon-fiber elements, which led to a weight reduction of 110 kg (242 lbs) compared to the regular F12. The engine for the F12 TDF is borrowed from the F12 Berlinetta and ensures 780 HP from the V12 cylinders.
