Video: Ferrari 458 Challenge in its natural environment

"Faster than the 430 Challenge... yet easier to drive at the limit," are the words of Ferrari 458 Challenge Test Driver Raffaele De Simone. "Now, the shifting time is like zero..." states De Simone's counterpart, Maurizio Mediani. The two recently got the change to spend some time behind the wheel of Ferrari's latest track-focused weapon. The drivers, along with a few other Ferrari speed merchants, and the 458 Challenge took a few laps around the Circuit of Valencia.

Most of the clip, which is available after the jump, is spent praising every aspect of the new Ferrari 458 Challenge, however, there are also some great shots (and sounds) of the car in action.
