The Race the Runway event is an opportunity for car owners to blat their cars down the runway at Edinburgh Airport and generate cash for a worthy cause – the Prince and Princess of Wales Hospice in Glasgow.

That has now been confirmed by Ferrari boss Luca di Montezemolo as he reported on Ferrari’s sales performance.
