'Ferrari man' arrested

Contrary to what you might be thinking, Ferrari did not sent an undercover man to Toyota's recent 'open day'.

The headline refers to a story in today's Sun newspaper about a man who was arrested for running around a shopping centre pretending to be a Ferrari F1 car.

David Honan, a 32-year-old street entertainer, was arrested as he ran around the shopping centre in a Ferrari outfit and clutching a steering wheel (!), and subsequently charged with causing an obstruction.

Rumours that this was merely an attempt to discredit Ferrari ahead of the new season, and that 'Mr Honan' is actually a bearded, 45-year-old, Australian team principal, cannot be confirmed at this time.
