May 2017 issue brief
This one’s the power issue! We’re screaming horsepower this month with a very rare cover story special, the 1479bhp Bugatti Chiron. We’ve also settled an old score this month. The battle of natural aspiration against turbocharging ended on a drag strip when we got a Ferrari 458 Italia up against the 488 GTB, and followed it up with a drive of the 488 Spider in the UAE. While in the UAE, we also drove the sinister Rolls-Royce Wraith Black Badge. On two wheels, we get the Ducati 959 Panigale and the MV Agusta F3 800 together on a racetrack and do some serious hooning on the Ducati Multistrada 1200 Enduro. Read more:
