Neuquén Suspends Ferrari Cavalcade After 200 km/h Crash on Ruta de los Siete Lagos

Provincial officials halted the luxury convoy following repeated reports of reckless driving.

Overview

  • The white Ferrari Purosangue labeled as car 34 lost control at roughly 200 km/h, left the roadway, struck a tree, and overturned near the Route 40 corridor between Bariloche and San Martín de los Andes.
  • Two men, ages 66 and 68, were transported to the Sanatorio de Bariloche with a cranial trauma and a cardiovascular decompensation, and neither was reported in life‑threatening condition.
  • Neuquén’s emergency chief said drivers had been warned for dangerous overtaking and excessive speeds, and fines were issued during the convoy’s passage.
  • Authorities said several Ferraris split from the main group, and the event was ordered suspended as the crash occurred, leading to the cancellation of the Neuquén leg.
  • Officials opened an investigation as coverage noted the route’s tight curves and limited visibility and described the Cavalcade Adventure as a costly touring event marketed for scenic driving rather than racing.
