FIVE HUNDRED FERRARIS TAKE TO FUJI TRACK FOR SUCCESSFUL RECORD ATTEMPT

Before the eyes of the Guinness Book of World Records' jury five hundred Ferraris were all out on the Fuji circuit at the same moment during the Ferrari Festival Japan 2008, thus beating the record of 385 Ferraris which was set at the Silverstone circuit last summer.

Five hundred Japanese Ferrari owners' met to beat the less than year old record, and going on the track in front of the Guinness judges they registered a new record, which will now be listed in the "Guinness Challenge".

This was the focal point of a very busy weekend for Ferrari at the Fuji race circuit where the well attended Ferrari Festival Japan 2008 took place over the weekend. The historic Fuji Speedway returned to the Formula 1 calendar last year after an absence of three decades.

The Ferrari Festival Japan 2008 programme also featured an intensive program of the first drivers' courses to be held in Japan, as well as seeing the dramatic unique track-only sports cars of the FXX program and five F1 clients taking to the track which is sited in the foothills of the spectacular Mount Fuji. There are also major changes set for the Maranello brand in Japan this summer: as of the upcoming 1st July the operations of the Japanese market will be directly managed by Ferrari through a new business division, Ferrari Japan KK.
