Rolex 24 at Daytona – Diary 23 January 2018

Ferrari 488 GTE
Recognise the livery? Somehow it doesn’t look quite the same on a Ferrari

We have our key man, Martin Raffauf, on the ground at the Rolex 24 at Daytona reporting for Porsche Road & Race, and he has sent a few shots of the happenings there on 23 January 2018. This was the first day of this great event where activities were limited to unpacking and scrutineering.

Wandering around the paddock and scrutineering area, Martin sent us back this selection of shots. We hope you find them interesting:
