Ferrari S.p.A. and Opus Media Group have joined forces to produce a glorious celebration of the ‘Prancing Horse’ and the success of one of the world’s most famous racing names in motor sport. Unveiled at the newly opened Ferrari World Abu Dhabi, The Official Ferrari Opus weighs an impressive 37kg and runs to 852 pages, each measuring half a metre square. Produced with the support and assistance of Mubadala Development Company, this is the largest and most luxurious publication ever on this iconic brand.

Hi would you mind stating which blog platform you’re using?
I’m planning to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a
hard time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and I’m looking
for something completely unique. P.S Sorry for being off-topic but I had to ask!
