Michael Gans in the Abarth uses momentum, leaning on its tyre sidewalls, as the Ferrari has a slightly tougher job managing its mass. The Morgan looks on from behind, keeping pace and applying pressure but never quite able to push and make a move stick. On the straights and through the sweepers, the power of that howling V12 is in abundance as it sings away from the scrappy Abarth and Morgan.
Then as the Vincent Gaye barrels down through St. Mary’s running wide, Gans sees an open door, slipping the little Abarth with precision. Only Olly Bryant in a Porsche 904 and the little Abarth-Simca could push the times into the 1 minute 32 second range. A proper plucky little sportscar that we love seeing put to work.
