Friday's Ferrari

This was one of the cars displayed in the 'Tribute to Ferrari' at the Coys International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 1997.
It's a 1996 Ferrari F310 as driven by Michael Schumacher and Eddie Irvine in the 1996 season. Michael Schumacher won three of the races and finished in third place in the World Drivers' Championship behind the Williams cars of Damon Hill and Jacques Villeneuve. Eddie Irvine finished in tenth place. The car had a 2,998cc V10 Ferrari Tipo 046 engine and was originally the only car that season to feature a low nose, but this was changed for the high nose, as seen in this photograph, halfway through the season at the Canadian Grand Prix.
