The Vintage Sports Car Club's SeeRed meeting at Donington Park in September 2005 included 'A Demonstration of Italian Racing Cars' and here, if you look closely, are two of the cars that took part.
The leading car is the 2.992cc flat-12 1980 Ferrari 312 T5 of John Fenning, being driven here by Mike Littlewood. Immediately behind him (you can just see the tops of his rear wheels and roll bar) is what appears to be the 1978 Ferrari 312 T3 of Nick Mason. The T5 was driven in the 1980 season by Gilles Villeneuve and Jody Scheckter, neither of them having a successful year and finishing in fourteenth and nineteenth places respectively in the Drivers' World Championship.
On 15 February 2019 I showed a photograph on another lap of the demonstration run with the cars almost side by side.
