Time for tea? How to arrive in style in a Ferrari

Want to get people falling at your feet? Learn from Alain De Cadenet...

---

We're sure that plenty of chaps aspire to sweeping the ladies off their feet, but we suspect that this is not the way they would want to do it.

It's erstwhile sports car racer and Classic & Sports Car magazine contributor Alain De Cadenet arriving rather too enthusiastically at the ceremonial finish of the North American tribute to the Mille Miglia and with bad brakes.

Note to the organisers - stick the carpet tiles to the floor in future...

I'd love to think that the person driving the Fezza actually spotted that that would happen if he did what he did.

awesome, truly awesome.....

i had something very similar happen to me at silverstone in a garage, plastic flooring over the painted concrete floor. car has a problem with grumpy driver comes flying into the garage, slams on and the floor with car on just slides on and every mechanic (me included) got completely upended - everyone else found it hilarious!!!

Just be thankful nobody fell on the car!
