This car competed in two rounds of the Shell Historic Ferrari-Maserati Challenge series at the VSCC's meeting at Donington Park in June 2003.
It's a 1972 Ferrari 712 Can Am, chassis #1010, and is powered by the biggest engine that Ferrari has ever produced, a V12 unit of 6,860cc. It started off life in 1970 as a Ferrari 512S with a 4,994cc V12 engine, but was converted to 712 specifications in 1971 and was used in Can Am racing by the NART team in 1972. It was owned at the time of this Donington Park meeting by Carlos Monteverde and was driven that day by David Franklin. This photograph was taken in the pit lane during a practice session.
