British couple killed after £300,000 Ferrari ‘plunges off’ mountain highway
- A married couple from the UK, aged 78 and 58, lost their lives when their black Ferrari 488 slid off the N-621 mountain road near Boca de Huergano, northern Spain, on May 10, 2025.
- The couple participated in a luxury rally of about 20 Ferrari owners touring León, and the road's sharp curves and the car's high power likely contributed to the crash.
- The Ferrari plunged upside down into the Yuso River, trapping the couple inside, which led to a rescue effort involving six hours of clearing undergrowth to reach the vehicle.
- Jose Antonio Gutierrez Sampedro, a commentator from the area, noted that managing a Ferrari 488 with its 700 horsepower requires great caution, especially on challenging mountain routes.
- Authorities have not confirmed whether the couple died on impact or drowned, and the crash underscores risks for experienced drivers handling powerful vehicles on challenging terrain.
