    I was massively saddened today to hear the passing of Paul Frere on 23/2/08.
    Paul Frere won Le Mans at the seat of a Ferrari in 1960, partnered by Olivier Gendebien.
    He and Gendebien won the 12 hours of Reims in 1958 whilst driving a long wheelbase 250 GT.
    Paul Frere went on to further his career with expert journalism for many a respected journal and even penned his own books.

    My fear is that as Ferrari evolves more and more in to the future many here (UK owners/afficionados) forget Ferrari's past.

    Please, all Ferrari owners remember the past and what Ferrari means.

    Think about it.....properly
