Lando Norris has been filmed driving his Ferrari F40 in London, the car a friend crashed near Monaco in January 2025 while he was away. He took delivery in late 2024 and said in May 2025 the repair was not finished. The sighting comes weeks after Lewis Hamilton bought an F40 of his own, and a month after a 72-mile F40 sold for $8.4 million.

Maserati is the celebrated marque of the Goodwood Revival from 18 to 20 September, a century after the Tipo 26's class win at the 1926 Targa Florio. More than 50 pre-1966 Maseratis race, the Lavant Cup returns as a Ferrari-versus-Maserati 'Battle of Modena', and Maserati's display is three cars from the Panini Collection.

Italian coachbuilder Riverti Automobili is teasing a new car that appears to take the current BMW M2 (G87) and restyle it as a homage to the legendary 1970s BMW 3.0 CSL. Details are very scarce, with only a “coming soon” website and a hillclimb sighting to go on, so this is a teaser rather than a full reveal, but the ingredients alone are enough to intrigue.
