(The Verge) Ferrari’s new F80 hypercar can record the track it is driving on and will boost the driver at the right time during the next lap. The “Boost Optimization” feature reads the straights and curves of the circuit and, with no further action from the driver, delivers more power to its hybrid system to help achieve the best lap time possible.

You can use Boost Optimization in “Performance” mode to get a consistent amount of electric power for as long as possible throughout your drive, or you can select “Qualify” mode to max out on boost power at the proper times at the cost of losing battery power fast. Unlike Ferrari’s SF90 Stradale and 296 GTB, there is no full-electric driving mode.
