Friday's Ferrari

This is a photograph that I took in the paddock at the Ferrari Racing Days event at Silverstone in September 2017.
It's the Ferrari 488 Challenge of James Weiland, and has a 3,902cc V8 turbocharged F154CB engine. This is what Ferrari say about the Challenge series of races:
 
'Over 1000 drivers have taken part in it, 100s of races have been disputed, while the overtaking, the thrills and the fun are incalculable. We are talking about the Ferrari Challenge, the most renowned single-marque championship, that has been bringing together dream cars and esteemed clients on the world’s most picturesque tracks since 1993. A competition for those who, not satisfied with just driving their Ferraris on the road, feel the urge to compete in top-level sprint races. The Ferrari Challenge is divided into three continental series: Europe, North America and the Asia-Pacific series, which celebrated its inaugural season in 2011. A further English national series was added in 2019.Challenge races are always hard fought and battle-filled, allowing the driver to fully savour the excitement that only the track can give.'
