Supercars storm the hill amid new car launches

For Immediate Release: Saturday July 01 2017

An unrepeatable array of exotica took to the hillclimb this afternoon during the ever-popular Michelin Supercar Run. Ferrari came out in force with super-rare hardware such as the 2009 FXX Evo and more recent LaFerrari Aperta. Not to be outdone, Aston Martin put on a show with five models including the awe-inspiring Vulcan AMR Pro which made its public debut at the Festival of Speed on Friday. The Fittipaldi EF7 Vision Gran Turismo by Pininfarina also made it maiden UK appearance at the Festival, while rival styling house Italdesign has used the event as a launchpad for its bold Zerouno. At the opposite end of the spectrum in terms of design, but not lacking for beauty and build quality, the Porsche 911 Targa Reimagined by Singer Vehicle Design has being wowing the crowds all weekend.
