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 the 2,992cc flat-12 1978 Ferrari 312 T3, chassis 034, that was driven by Gilles Villeneuve in the 1978 F1 season and was owned in 1997 by Nick Mason. Gilles Villeneuve won one Grand Prix that season, in Canada, and ended up in ninth place in the 1978 World Drivers’ Championship; his team mate Carlos Reutemann won four of the races and was third in the Championship, Ferrari finishing in second place in the World Constructors’ Championship.
