I had the pleasure of filming this 1964 Ferrari 250 GTO built by Roelofs Engineering, a Dutch company with over 40 years of experience in the restoration of prestigious Italian car brands, Ferrari in the first place but also Alfa-Romeo and Lancia. Calling it a "replica" is somewhat reductive and does not convey the idea of the majesty of this project. To reach the car you see, in its incredible current state, identical in all to the original (except the construction period), 20 years of slow gestation were necessary. The perfect reproduction of the chassis, the hand-beaten sheet, everything has been faithfully reproduced, even in the smallest details. Ten years have passed since the car was completed and in this period, fortunately for all of us enthusiasts, it was entrusted to the driver Nicky Pastorelli. With him behind the wheel, the car takes part in some of the most beautiful classic cars races on the track every year. The video you see refers to the 2018 Motor Legend Festival at Imola circuit. In 2019 I had the opportunity of seeing it again run on the Nurburgring circuit during the AvD Oldtimer Grand Prix. We have to thank Mr Pastorelli and Roelofs Engineering's staff for providing us with some onboard footage.
