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.

PINKS - Racers Race for Pink Slips

Speedtv.com

Remeber back to the first Fast and the Furious installment, where "racing for slips" was all the rage. PINKS extends this idea further and capitalises on our thirst for seeing someone suffer and lose their car! (Aren't we just so evil!!)

Ok i'm sure that we've all talked about comparing motorsport drivers of different genre's (F1, rally, drift, go-kart etc) and thought about a way of comparing them all against each other to see who is best. It seems that someone has already though about comparing top D1 Drifters against some of the top NASCAR drivers.

Gumball 3000! Where the Rich Race

Apart from sounding like an über cool candy machine, the Gumball 3000 is a race. A HUGE one in fact. The Gumball 3000 started in 1933 where a renowned motorcyclist Mister Baker, travelled America coast-to-coast in 54 hours, which warranted the nickname he earned, Cannonball. Since then, he held an annual race since 1914, where he invited participants to enter.
In the 1970s, a motor journalist Brock Yates had started the ‘Cannonball Baker Sea To Shining Sea Memorial Trophy Dash’ in honour of the great Cannonball. The first race was held on April 1, 1971, and first prize was a Gumball dispenser.

Renault take 2 out of 3 Podium Finishes in Spain

I really got into F1 this year. A lot of my friends have been watching it for years but I never really found it that interesting…not interesting enough to stay up to stupid hours in the morning watching it though. It all changed when I watched the F1 when it came to Melbourne, Australia this year. This meant that I could actually spend a Sunday in my normal time zone watching the race.
Insert Title Here
The Podium


The most memorable moments for me was when Webber's gearbox failed on him whilst in the lead on in his home crowd, and also when Button's engine caught on fire and forced him to retire just inches short of the finish line!!
