OUR LONG AND WINDING ROAD LENGTH: 598km

STREAM WORKS • This is an MG. Yes, really. Turns out it’s got form in streamliners too… just ask Stirling Moss

XTREME MACHINE • Maserati’s racing history is a patchwork of epic highs and long absences, so can the MCXtrema – a track only version of its latest supercar – bring back the glory days?

One for the road? • The new GT2 Stradale brings the MCXtrema’s fury to the public tarmac
