This car is being refuelled before the start of practice at the Coys International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 1993.
It's the 1956 Maserati 300S of German driver Hartmut Ibing, which was originally supplied to Spanish driver Francisco Godia-Sales with chassis number 3066 but was renumbered to 3056 when it was modified by the factory and given engine number 3056 in 1958. The Maserati 300S was produced from 1955 to 1959 to challenge for the World Sportscar Championship, and had a 2,993cc straight-6 engine that was derived from the 2½ litre Grand Prix engine used in the Maserati 250F but with a longer stroke.
