Ferrari Racing Days 2006 @ Nurburgring
Michael Schumacher will be the star attraction at the Nurburgring this weekend, when he takes time out between Monza testing and the Italian Grand Prix to demonstrate his Formula One machine as part of the ‘Ferrari Racing Days 2006’ event.
Schumacher will run a series of laps on Sunday afternoon in both his F2005 and Ferrari’s latest road car, the 599 GTB Fiorano. In front of his expectant fans, the German maestro will then end his stint with a first outing in his personal FXX GT machine.
Set in the heart of Germany’s Rhine region, the Nurburgring is one of Schumacher’s favourite circuits, the former champion having won six Grands Prix at the track, four of them behind the wheel of a Ferrari. But his successful record is just one of the reasons he is looking forward to the event.
“These are the dates that I love: lots of cars and action and a huge crowd,” said Schumacher enthusiastically. “I am sure it will be an enjoyable day and I hope we will have fun.”
Fans attending the event will also get to see a wide range of historic Formula One machinery prepared by Ferrari’s Maranello customer department, as well as countless Ferrari road cars.

Probably be a great chance to get some good photos of his black FXX, if anyone is able to go of course.

Last year or '04? Only held every 2 years and a event not to miss
Cowboy, not sure what you will be able to see without having to fork over the 48 Euro to get inside as far as F-cars go. Of course though with an event like this it will surely bring out other supercars that will be parked around the Nuerburgring.
