In 1963, Ferrari introduced its first mid/rear-engined car with a V12 engine, the 250 P sports racing car. Four examples of the 250 P were built for the 1963 season, including the subject of this book, chassis 0816, and they immediately proved to be a force to be reckoned with in the races in which they competed.
Along with the 275 Ps and 330 Ps, these cars were built to run in the prototype (initially called experimental) category of the FIA Manufacturers’ World Championship. Over the two years that they were Ferrari works entries, they competed in a total of seven races in the Challenge Mondiale/Prototypes Trophy divisions. They took victory in
six of them, with three of these wins being recorded by chassis 0816 – the only races the car participated in. Of these three wins, two were at Le Mans, making this the only Ferrari to have won Le Mans twice!
This one-off, art-style book provides a comprehensive history of this truly iconic and historic Ferrari. From its three wins as a works car to its racing in America throughout the mid-to-late 1960s to nearly five decades of ownership by renowned Ferrari collector Pierre Bardinon for his Collection Mas du Clos to its current ownership, with whom it went on something of a renaissance tour, travelling around the Continent, the UK and the USA.
