Freesome: Ferrari Virtual Race PC Game Free Download

Looks like even Ferrari is slowly realizing the power of using video games to appeal to the masses, and I am not even talking about just licensing their cars to be used in games like Gran Turismo 5 or Ferrari Challenge. I am talking going the BMW's M3 challenge route by featuring a full blown free racing game. Unlike the BMW M3 Challenge, don't expect it to be some weapons grade sim racer; However, it is something that would be great to have just for some fun and especially for free.

The game can be downloaded through this link here, also checkout the info for the game and more in game screen shots below. Enjoy!

What is the Ferrari Virtual Race?

The Ferrari Virtual Race is a racing simulator, that allows you to race a Ferrari (customised for you at the Atelier) around the legendary Mugello circuit.

How does it work?
1. Download the Ferrari Virtual Race to your PC.
2. Configure your ideal car at the Atelier.
3. Save your bespoke car in My Ferrari.
4. Export your dream car from My Ferrari to the Ferrari Virtual Race.

To see how your 612 Scaglietti takes the San Donato corner, or how your Fiorano looks on the Luco bend, download the Ferrari Virtual Race now.

Stay tuned:
The 599 GTB Fiorano, 612 Scaglietti and 430 Scuderia are all ready to be driven in the Ferrari Virtual Race. The rest of the range will be available soon – but why wait? You can save your customised California, F430 or F430 Spider to My Ferrari to drive at a later date.
