Lando Norris’ prized ferrari F40 has been involved in a crash near Monaco, and teh incident has gone viral on social media.
In early January 2025, fans noticed damage to the left-rear bumper of the legendary supercar, which bears the Monaco registration plate ‘8650’. The mystery of how it happened was recently solved when a video surfaced online, shedding light on the unfortunate event.
Monaco Mishap: The ferrari F40 Crash
The McLaren Formula 1 driver acquired the Ferrari F40 in the summer of 2024 after a visit to a Ferrari dealership. the iconic vehicle, valued at over $2.5 million, is one of just 1,311 ever produced between 1987 and 1992. Norris had been seen driving the car around Monte Carlo in December 2024, even using it for his Christmas shopping.
The crash occurred on the winding mountain roads near Monaco. According to the video, an unidentified driver lost control of the car while exiting a left-hand bend. Despite dry conditions, the rear end of the F40 slid out, sending the vehicle spinning backward into the barriers. The damage from the impact matched the earlier sightings of the bumper damage.
Fortunately,the car remained driveable,as the driver was able to pull over instantly after the incident. However, given the rarity of the Ferrari F40 and its components, repairs are expected to be costly, perhaps impacting Norris’ insurance premiums.
Imagine being abroad and someone crashes your car like this 😭

another F40 Crash in the UK
While the Monaco incident is concerning, it pales in comparison to another Ferrari F40 crash that occurred in the UK around the same time. This second incident involved a technician who was reportedly test-driving the car after maintenance.
In wet conditions,the F40 lost control on a straight road near Hertfordshire. The car spun across the opposite lane, hit a verge, and rolled into a lamppost. The damage was severe, raising questions about weather the vehicle can be repaired. The driver was hospitalized, tho their current condition remains unknown.
Representatives for Lando Norris have been contacted for comment on the Monaco incident involving his Ferrari F40.
What are the functions of the L, N, and PE wires in an electrical system?
L、N、PE线分别代表什么?
L、N、PE线分别代表以下含义:
- L (Live Line): 火线,主要用于输送电能,是电路中主要的导电线路,通常带有高电压。
- N (Neutral Line): 零线,它从变压器的二次侧中性点(N)引出,与火线(L)共同构成电路回路,为用电设备供电。零线在变压器二次侧中性点(N)处与保护地线(PE)共同接地,提供双重保护。
- PE (Protective Earth): 接地线,它将设备或系统直接连接到地球,以提供安全回路,确保在发生电气故障时能够有效地将电流导入地下,保护人身安全。
这三种线在电气系统中各自扮演着重要的角色,确保电路的正常运行和设备的安全使用。
