Poised to make its debut at Geneva next week, the F8 Tributo is Ferrari’s homage to the multiple-award-winning twin-turbocharged 3.9-litre V8, which now produces a staggering 710bhp and 770 Nm of torque. That makes it the most powerful eight-cylinder engine ever used in a non-special series Ferrari, helping the F8 Tributo to dispatch the 0–62mph sprint in just 2.9sec.
The winter break in the classic car world is a thing of the past nowadays. We’ve already had the GP Ice Race in Zell am See this year, which showed us how much fun can be had on the ice and the snow with the right cars.

On 2 March at Ascot Racecourse, Historics will kick off its 2019 with an auction comprising some 150 collectable cars, ranging from significant pre-War Grand Tourers and 1960s roadsters to affordable ‘youngtimers’ and contemporary sports cars. Before you delve into the catalogue on Classic Driver and start daydreaming, why not hear directly from auction director Edward Bridger-Stille about what Historics is doing differently and why it might be the perfect place to either buy or sell your car?
