I think [the LP560-4] is two times the Ferrari. It is the last, the best. I am relaxed.''

Ferrari and Porsche has a similar official exchange before, Porsche lend Ferrari the Carrera GT and Ferrari lend Porsche their Enzo. However none of the engineers or test drivers from both companies have made any official comments about their rival's cars.

What Reggiani said is a big call, 2 times the Ferrari? I seriously doubt it.
