Default Just seen on a certain popular driving road

The works Porsche demonstrator 911 HUL (Turbo S) and the Ferrari 488 GTB-S C8 FNE. There was a cameraman and also a chap in another Porsche who I recognised (but whose name escapes me for now).

No Scott, I don't think it was him. I've managed to remember the name of the guy in the other Porsche, and it was Steve Sutcliffe, so I'll look out for something on the Auto Express website at some time in the future.

Yes Steve, that's the one. They're still there filming. I had a quick chat and when I mentioned how bad the surface is they mentioned that that's why they use it. This will be a film for the web site, not an article in the magazine.
