Can’t imagine there are too many of these - In Mexico and is listed at $40k…

There's been a couple in that colour scheme and the bare carbon finish, but given the Ferrari collaboration they should really be red:

Although that one is missing the red carbon fork.

Can someone enlighten me as to the advantage of no seat tube?

No.

That way the UCI can outlaw it. What's up with the stupid price?

Less is more.

Since the frame is a monocoque it doesn't necessarily need a diamond shape frame with a seat tube. I guess it is a way of showing that off.

Guess it was pretty early for carbon frames so they probably wanted to show off as much as possible

since when did any Italian try to show off anything?
