385 Ferraris ranging from a 250 California Spider through to the 250GTO and the ultra-exclusive FXX, as well as several examples of the iconic supercars, the F40, F50 and Enzo, set a new Guinness World Record for the ‘Largest Parade of Ferrari Cars’ at Silverstone on Saturday 9 June, 2007. Definitely a sight that can make a grown man’s heart break into pieces. For those of you who love numbers, according to the organizers, the Ferraris that participated in the parade had an estimated value of more than €88 million - $117 million! -Continued below Massimo Fedeli, Managing Director of Ferrari GB Ltd, said: “What an amazing sight… We are proud to have the support of so many Ferrari owners today in setting a new Guinness World Record. We would like to express our sincere thanks to the Owners Club, our Sponsors and everyone who has been working behind the scenes for months to achieve this fantastic record.”
In order to comply with the Guinness World Record’s rules for such an attempt, all the cars had to travel over a minimum 2 mile distance, no more than two car lengths apart, and had to be counted at the beginning and the end of the parade. With a starting grid of Ferrari cars stretching from Becketts all the way to Copse on the Silverstone Circuit, the cars completed one full lap and covered a distance of 3 miles, driving two abreast around the entire circuit. Leading the parade was a 599 GTB Fiorano driven by Bruno Senna, nephew of three-time World Champion Ayrton Senna
