In this Hagerty video, we dive into the exhilarating world of the Maserati MC20 GT2, a beast of a car that promises to bridge the gap between amateur racers and professionals. The GT2 impresses with its Nettuno engine, featuring a unique 90-degree V6 design and innovative pre-combustion chamber technology for that perfect blend of power and efficiency. With over 1,000 kilos of downforce and 540 pounds-feet of torque, this car means serious business on the track.

Andrea Bertolini provides valuable feedback on driving techniques, emphasizing the importance of braking points and pressure for optimal performance. The GT2's design, with a carbon tub and double wishbone suspension, ensures a comfortable yet race-oriented driving experience.

Looking ahead, the GT2 is set to compete in the Fanatech GT2 championship and possibly make appearances in 24-hour races, hinting at a bright future for Maserati in the racing world.
Speculation arises about the potential release of a road version of the MC20 GT2, sparking excitement for what Maserati might have in store for enthusiasts and speed aficionados. The video captures the thrill and adrenaline of pushing the GT2 to its limits on the track, showcasing its capabilities and performance prowess. With a blend of cutting-edge technology and racing heritage, the MC20 GT2 stands as a testament to Maserati's commitment to excellence and innovation in the world of motorsport.
