Long and short of it was (in my experience)....Ferraris hate short journeys...they need to be warmed up for a good 15 - 20 minutes prior to use...then another 15 minutes of driving under 3K...then when the oil is at its optimum temperature...start to really open her up...right up to the red line (I never hit the rev limiter though) the harder you drive her the more she will beg you for more....I stay out for a max of about of three hours....before some slow driving to cool her down before going home...then another 20 minutes to cool her down slowly before the final switch off...
Also I noticed everything only starts to really "gel" after around one hour of use...no idea what takes this long to heat up...but its a very different car to the car after just 15 minutes of use.
