The world's GREATEST supercar: Ferrari 296 GTB versus McLaren 750S

One of these machines is the finest quarter-of-a-million pound supercar on sale today. But is it the Ferrari 296 GTB or McLaren 750S? Does the world's greatest supercar have a twin-turbo V6 with hybrid drive, or a twin-turbo V8? Over two days on the best roads in North Wales, we set about answering those difficult questions.

The Ferrari represents the start of a new era for Maranello. Gone is the V8 that's powered Ferrari's entry-level mid-engined supercar for decades, in its place a downsized V6 with electrical assistance producing 819bhp. Will you miss the V8?

The 750S, meanwhile, is a comprehensive redevelopment of the magnificent 720S. You won't find any hybrid assistance here, just a snorting V8 with turbos producing 740bhp. With carbon fibre construction, the McLaren is lighter than the Ferrari by 200kg.
