f1 on players run...new one possibly?

John McCaw has a huge Ferrari collection

[drewwtms]

There's also a Craig Stanton that races in the Grand Am Cup series against us. He drives a Porsche 911. He was the GS-class champ in 2004. But his hometown is listed as Long Beach, CA.

Craig is John's brother, as mentioned in Noddy's post.

No he's talking about a Craig Stanton not Craig McCaw
Just for the record there was another brother - Keith - now deceased.

So do we know who owns it yet or not?

What does the American Fleet thread say?

Cool. Thanks

Roy says who the owner is! http://ferrarichat.com/forum/showpos...2&postcount=15

What is important, though, is that he did NOT say the owner wasn't there. Maybe in another car like you guys said. I'm still going with the guy in the pic on the laptop. Maybe he's trying to 1 up his buddy's collection with the ultimate car.

A few more pages (like 91 :22yikes: ) of Player's Run photos are here.

You'll find some shots of #011 starting on page 59 and then more towards the end of the album.

Nice find, Thanks

In other news - take a close look at this photo of John McCaw's 1959 Ferrari Testa Rossa at Pebble Beach:



Notice anything familiar about the man standing behind the car in the blue shirt? In my mind he looks to be the same guy behind the F1 in that shot in Aspen - same cellphone even...

Now take a look at these photos of billionaire John McCaw on Forbes:

Doesn't look even remotely close to him in my opinion and it doesn't look like his brother Craig or Bruce either (I checked).

So who is that blue shirt wearing guy?

The owner is not the guy in the picture. John drove the car. He brought several cars on the run. The first day he drove a black 959. The second day he drove a yellow GT2. I think he drove the F1 a little on the way to SLC as I saw some pictures that were not from the Aspen to Denver drive. The car was outside with a cover on it for the night before the drive from SLC to Aspen. However, it was raining really hard in SLC, so he switched to his GT2. I think the guy in the picture in Aspen (not with the laptop) and in the picture in Pebble Beach takes care of the cars. I saw him at all stops where John was. He was wearing a shirt with "Cavallino Holdings, Ltd." embroidered in the chest most days.

I'm now 100% positive John McCaw owns 011

Thanks for the excellent info. Couple that with Chris' post and everything else that's come my way and I think we certainly have what we were looking for. I will update the list.

I also heard that the current owner has had the car since the Christies Auction in 2003. I'm actually surprised this is the first time this car has appeared unless he only recently brought it into the USA or it has been a garage queen since it got here.
