Now that F1 teams aren’t allowed to test future developments using the car from the previous year, they’re all searching for solutions. Well, Ferrari seems to have come up with the best one we’ve seen so far - the Prancing Horse recently used its Fiorano track to test... Santa Claus and his sled.
The video below shows Santa driving the 2013 Ferrari F138 Formula One racer, pulling a sled full loaded with all sorts of gifts on the tarmac. Of course, we all know that Santa doesn’t exist, so, behind the mask, we find Ferrari driver Marc Genè.

Who knows, maybe the boxes in the sled are packed with hardware for the 2014 Ferrari F1 car...

And speaking of Fiorano, we’ll remind you that Ferrari recently tested a LaFerrari with a turbocharged engine on the circuit.
