The Ferrari F150 Formula One race car proved itself to be a true Ferrari in testing earlier today by doing what Ferraris do best: catching on fire.

The new Ferrari F1 car was in testing at Spain's Ricardo Tormo Circuit in the sure hands of Felipe Massa on Thursday when the rear-end burst into flames. The fire was blamed on a broken clamp.
