In the early 60s there was considerable competition between sports car racing and F1 to be the premier formula. As a kid I had pictures of sports cars on my bedroom wall: Jags, Mercs, and the various 250 Ferraris, in particular the SWB Scaglietti-bodied one, which was stunning.

One wonders if those days could return.

The cars are stunning to look at in the main, and there's variation. I'm off to the GFoS and the Le Mans cars are always a highlight and they can be difficult to get near.

It is certainly an interesting move.
