Ferrari Racing Days
One of the largest annual gatherings of Ferraris takes place at the Nurburgring. Called the 'Racing Days', these typically include factory support with F1 Clienti, the Historic Challenges and Michael Schumacher flogging his personal cars.
This year, the event was heightened by the FXX Evoluzione program which was on the last leg of its world tour. The factory also managed the Corse Clienti F1s and had the 250 California Spyder prototype on special display.
The historic disc-brake race was well fielded and featured five BBLMs as well as two 308 Group 4s. The latter of these was specially built by Michelotto to compete in rallys and the Targa Florio.
Dirk de Jager braved a cold day at the Nurburgring GP track to bring us this week's feature gallery. Included is an expensive collision between two historic Ferraris.

This was exemplified earlier today with stunning design and lavish displays.
Surprisingly, many of the top supercars were kept under wraps until opening day. These include our favorite, the GTbyCITROËN. It has a ridiculous interior, but an external shape that exudes performance without even moving. And with a surprise launch of the Hypnos concept, we can say Citroen really stole the show....
