Ferrari has released first official pictures of the F430 Scuderia - a lighter, hardercore version of the standard coupe.The engine is a tuned version of the 4.3 litre V8 which produces 510bhp. Crucially though, the Scuderia weighs 100kg less than the 430 coupe, so expect a sparse carbon-fibre-heavy cabin a la the previous generation 360 CS.
Tech-wise the Stradale gets race-derived gearbox software - named the 'F1 Superfast' - which reduces each paddleshift to 60 milliseconds. There's also a newly integrated electronic driver aid system which combines the 'E-diff' electronic differential with traction and stability control, to enhance performance in each setting.
The Scuderia will first be seen in the metal when it's unveiled by Michael Schumacher at the Frankfurt motor show in September.
