Friday's Ferrari

Two cars here that took part in 'A Demonstration of Italian Racing Cars' at the VSCC's SeeRed meeting at Donington Park in September 2005.
On the left is the 2,992cc flat-12 1978 Ferrari 312 T3 that was driven by Gilles Villeneuve in the 1978 F1 season. It's not listed in the programme of the event as one of the cars taking part in the demonstration runs, but it's chassis 034 and was owned at the time by Nick Mason, the driver here being Mark Hales. I've shown photographs of this car previously, the last occasion being 13 October 2017. The car on the right is a later version of the Ferrari 312, the 1980 T5, with the same flat-12 engine. It's John Fenning's car, chassis 048, and was driven here by Mike Littlewood. On 22 June 2012 I showed a photograph of the car in the pit lane at this meeting.
