The chief element in Goodwood’s celebration of Ferrari’s 70th anniversary at this summer’s Festival of Speed presented by Mastercard, will of course be a mouth-watering array of more than 35 significant competition cars from the legendary Maranello marque, including grand prix and sportscar endurance racers, in addition to a number of glorious Ferrari road-going models.
