Over 40 F40s celebrate the model’s 20th birthday and the 40th anniversary of the UK club
385 Ferraris took the track at Silverstone on Saturday evening, going into the record books as the Largest Parade of Ferrari Cars ever.
Held as part of the Ferrari Racing Days at Silverstone weekend Ferrari GB, in conjunction with the very active Ferrari Owners’ Club of Great Britain, had issued a ‘call to arms’ that resulted in an unprecedented number of entries to the Guinness World Record attempt.
In the end, they managed to amass a total of 385 cars on the circuit at the same time - smashing the previous record by a considerable margin.
Massimo Fedeli, Managing Director of Ferrari GB Ltd, said: "What an amazing sight. We are proud to have the support of so many Ferrari owners today in setting a new Guinness World Record. We would like to express our sincere thanks to the Owners Club, our Sponsors and everyone who has been working behind the scenes for months to achieve this fantastic record."
"I’m so proud to have been asked by Ferrari to help set a new Guinness World Record" said Peter Everingham, Secretary of the Ferrari Owners Club GB, "What our members achieved here today on the Club’s 40th Anniversary is quite remarkable - with over 1000 Ferrari cars from every era here this weekend. We have so many enthusiastic owners, and I want to thank them fortheir support as we couldn’t have achieved this without them. I’m sure this one will take some beating."
