VIDEO: Ferrari 599 GTO Prototype Shows Some Muscle on the Fiorano Race Track



A prototype model of the Ferrari 599 covered in black cladding has been snagged on film during testing at the Fiorano circuit.

In any case, the vented hood and the styling of the bumpers point towards a prototype based on the 670-horsepower 599 GTO, which was introduced into the range this past April, with some minor changes such as the California-esque LED headlamps. Watch the video right after the jump.
