Galleria Ferrari

Spent a couple of days in Italy at the start of this week for a few meetings - one of which happened to be at a fairly well known race team ;) that operate from Maranello. Got a couple of free passes for the Galleria so had a bit of a look 'round.

TBH, it's a slightly disappointing place - I know that they have a much wider range of vehicles to fall back on, but MB World in Stuttgart is much better, not just the number of cars on show, but the whole visit is far more informative. Still, shouldn't complain really...

I'm no photographer, but thought I'd stick a few pics up anyway.

Nice carbon work - still 2 cylinders short though...

One of the cars I grew up watching on TV :). Amazing now just how basic they seem compared to current F1 cars.

I don't now if you saw it on the F1 at the weekend but there's a new Fezza world opening in 2010, the new theme park being constructed adjacent to the marina circuit on Yas Island.

The park can easily be picked out from the air, housed in a giant red roof that sports a 200-foot-tall Ferrari logo, the largest ever made. With doors set to open in the new year, details are now being released while work is underway on the attractions that will be included in the 200,000 square meters (over two million square feet) of indoor space dedicated to the park.

Among the 20+ rides that will be housed in the largest indoor park on earth will be the world's fastest roller coaster, a g-force drop tower breaching the 150-foot-high red steel roof to extend over 200 feet into the sky, racing simulators, karting and a flume ride through a giant Ferrari engine. Of course there will be plenty of hospitality and shopping to go along with the rides, more of which you can read about in the press release after the jump.
