    I visited the Retro Classics exhibition in Stuttgart today. Hundreds and thousands of cars to see - among them the following one. No wonder everyone is faster than Kovalinen...

    The car is red though, shouldn't that mean he is faster than Lewis? :)

    That is no Ferrari. That is a Maserati Barchetta. They had made a small but spectacular racingseries out of it in the early nineties.

    Not to derail the thread here, but the Maserati in question used could have changed Maserati in the early 90s to it's former glory IMO. A concept car using the technology from this racer called the Chubasco would have been fabulous had it been built.

    Ok, carry on :)
