Craig HillFerrari world record at Silverstone
June 6th 2007 06:24
Ferrari will attempt to break the world record for the largest parade of Ferrari cars at the Formula One world championship circuit Silverstone on Saturday 9th June.
A list of some of the expected car has been released by Ferrari:
* 20 pre-1973 V12s, including two 250 GT SWB, a 250 GTO and a 275 GTB/C, as well as several Daytonas, 250 GT Lussos and even a 330 GT.
* 20 examples of Ferrari's iconic F40s, F50s and Enzos.
* 10 examples of the beautiful Dino.
* 40 examples of each of Ferrari's mid-engined 355, 360 Modena and F430.
* 20 modern V12s, including several 550 Maranello, 575M and 599 GTB Fioranos, accompanied by several 456 GT and 612 Scaglietti models.
* Several other examples of Ferrari's incredibly diverse heritage, including Testarossas, Boxers, Mondials, 308s, 328s, 348s and more.
* Bruno Senna, nephew of three times World Champion Ayrton Senna, and already a winner in his own right in GP2, will be driving one of the lead Ferrari cars in the Guinness World Record attempt.
This is a great spectacle for all fans of Ferrari and motor sport in general, as to see this many cars all in one place at one time would be just fantastic, unless you happen to be a shareholder in a car insurance company.
No doubt there will be some very impressive photo shoots after the event to show everyone, and the next event, how many 2 CV's can get to the circuit.
The whole weekend has been designated a Ferrari spectacular with racing, historic cars and so much more, tickets are around £15 to £25 depending on which day you go and children under 16 can go for free.
