What is it about TV chefs and Ferraris? Gordon Ramsay is a well-known fan of the Italian firm and now James Martin has driven the new four-seater Ferrari FF up the hill at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.

Commenting on the FF, Martin said, "Fantastic! A great piece of kit, which handles like all the other Ferraris and it’s surprising that you’ve actually got two proper seats in the back."

Ginger-haired Ferrari nut Chris Evans was also in attendance with his fleet of 'Magnificent Seven' Ferraris. Evans has raised £1.1million for Children in Need by auctioning off drives in his fabulous collection of vintage Ferraris.

A number of other classic Ferraris were also on display, including an original and unrestored 373 MM from 1953.

Ferrari-themed videos from this year's Festival of Speed can be found on Ferrari's website at www.ferrari.com
