Air Malta recently worked up a little stunt that pitted an Airbus A320 against a Ferrari F12 Berlinetta (http://www.autoblog.com/ferrari/f12+berlinetta/) in a drag race (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/drag race/) to raise funds for charity. It's easy to forget just how quick something the size of a jetliner can be, but watching the video below shows us just where the big passenger aircraft stands when it comes to sprinting down a runway. We won't spoil the clip for you, you'll just have to check out the showdown below.
Air Malta says it raised over 178,820 euro with the stunt, which is around $230,000. That's despite the fact that intermittent rain showers kept crowds away. Formula One (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/formula+one/) racer Lewis Hamilton (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/lewis+hamilton/) even stopped by to say "Hi" to the crowds. He wasn't piloting the F12, however.
