Default Ferrari FF just as combustible in HK

"P55 year-old driver jumped out of the car before it disappeared in smoke.
For Hong Kong resident Chan Kwan-chau, the ironically named Happy Valley Flyover (overpass) probably isn't going to carry many happy memories from now on. The man had just exited a tunnel and driven onto the overpass, when his Ferrari FF spontaneously began to churn out black smoke from its 6.3-liter, V12 engine. The 55 year-old driver quickly jumped out of the car, and was left watching as the car burned down, before firefighters arrived on the scene to extinguish it."

It's funny to see that we're happy to hear yet about another car catching on fire. And we thought we were special. Hah!
