Ferrari 599 China
Ferrari has unveiled and auctioned off a £1m special edition version of its 599 supercar.
Called the 599 China, Ferrari teamed up with Chinese artist Lu Hao who created a paint scheme influenced by the Song Dynasty's Ge Kilm pottery.
The one-off Ferrari was sold at a Gala dinner for just over a million pounds to an anonymous buyer, with all proceeds going to fund automotive engineering students and teachers at Tsinghua University.
The money from the sale will also allow top students to study in Milan and have an internship at Ferrari.
Former F1 star Michael Schumacher was also on hand to auction signed F1 memorabilia.
