FERRARI LOOKS TO BREAK TRACK RECORD



Ferrari North Europe now has over 1 000 cars registered for its plan to break the Guinness World Record for the largest parade of Ferrari cars at 18:00 on Saturday 15th September during Ferrari Racing Days event at Silverstone Circuit.

Ferrari North Europe previously set the record with 385 cars taking part on the Silverstone Circuit at the Ferrari Racing Days event in 2007, but this was later increased to 490 cars. Even though over 600 cars had registered in the first month when the attempt was announced, Ferrari North Europe has always had the ambition to set a Guinness World Record with 1 000 cars.

Registrations continue to remain open as the Italian carmaker anticipates the recently extended Silverstone Grand Prix circuit can now accommodate more than 1 000 cars on track.

This increased interest for next month's record bid is thanks to the support from the Ferrari Owners Club and Ferrari enthusiasts all over the UK and abroad and will create what promises to be an unrivalled spectacle – Silverstone turned Rosso Corsa. In addition, Ferrari will be donating £5 (about R64) for every car entered into the world record attempt to BEN, the automotive industry’s own charity.

Ferrari Racing Days, held at Silverstone Circuit 15-16 September, is the only motor racing event in the UK where Ferrari fans will be able to see FXX and 599XX development cars on track and a wide range of historic Ferrari F1 cars from the F1 Clienti department, together with a schedule of races from the Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli and the Ferrari Club Challenge, the Pirelli Ferrari Open.
