The renowned ‘Festival of Speed Sunday Shootout’ was declared open by Rossi as he paraded up the Hillclimb in an ex-Jacky Ickx/Jochen Mass Porsche 962C.

Current Mercedes F1 title contender, Nico Rosberg, celebrated his 30th birthday weekend with a blast up the hill in his 2013 race-winning grand prix car, the Mercedes F1 W04.
