Every Ferrari Race Car Ever Made<\/h2>\n

Enzo Ferrari wanted to race. He had no interest in the idea of producing road cars. When he initially started Ferrari it was built to prepare, and successfully race, various drivers in Alfa Romeo. That was until 1938, when he was hired by Alfa Romeo to head their motor racing department. In 1929, Enzo Ferrari left Alfa Romeo’s employment to start his own racing stable (scuderia in Italian). Scuderia Ferrari did not race cars with the Ferrari name, though the Alfas they used on the track did sport the prancing horse. Race cars came to the Scuderia from Alfa for tuning for almost a decade, and the Ferrari shop in Modena built its first car, the Alfa Romeo 158 Grand Prix racer, in 1937. In 1938, Alfa took its racing program in-house, and Enzo Ferrari went with it. After 10 years on his own, though, working for someone else proved difficult. He left Alfa (or was dismissed) for the last time in 1939.<\/span><\/p>\n

When Enzo Ferrari left Alfa Romeo, he agreed to not use his name in connection with racing for four years. That wasn’t so bad; WWII curtailed racing for most of those four years anyway. Ferrari moved from Modena to Maranello during the war. In 1945, Ferrari began work on the 12-cylinder engine the company would be famous for, and in 1947, Enzo Ferrari drove the first 125 S out of the factory gates. Post-war racing was Ferrari’s finest hour on the track. During the 1950s, Ferrari had legendary engineers like Lampredi and Jano on the payroll, and bodies designed by the legendary Pinin Farina. Every time a race car was improved, the road car was the beneficiary. In 1951, a Ferrari 375 brought the team its first victory — over Alfa Romeo, no less. The ’60s started out pretty good for Ferrari: Phil Hill won the Formula 1 championship in 1961 using a 1.5-liter V6 race car nicknamed “Dino.” It was the era of the sexy, swooping 250 Testa Rossa. But things got rough for the Prancing Horse, like when Carroll Shelby brought his Cobra to European race tracks. In the 1990s things looked good for Ferrari in Formula One. The hot-blooded Ferrari cars met their match in the cool German driving of Michael Schumacher, who raced Ferraris to seven F1 championships between 1994 and 2004.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can see that Ferrari is passionate about racing like no other team on the planet. This page is dedicated to those race cars, to the Formula One, GT and Sports Prototypes that are the true Ferrari cars that made the company successful. We spent months putting this list together, so we hope you enjoy it.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ferrari Formula One Cars<\/span><\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Ferrari Formula 1 Cars<\/h2>\n

Scuderia Ferrari S.p.A. is the oldest, most recognizable and famous Formula One team. The team was founded by Enzo Ferrari, initially to race cars produced by Alfa Romeo, though by 1947 Ferrari had begun building its own cars. The results are staggering, with Ferrari having won a record 16 Constructors’ Championships and 15 Driver’s Championships. Over 200 victories and almost 800 pole positions tell only part of the story of this team. While drivers like Michael Schumacher and Sebastian Vettel get all the attention, we want to focus on the cars, the Ferrari F1 machines that made it all possible.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ferrari Formula 2 & Other Single Seaters<\/span><\/h2>\n

Ferrari Formula 2 & Single Seaters<\/h2>\n

Ferrari competed in Formula 2, especially during the early era when the two series were so similar and rules were often shared. In addition Ferrari would get upset with Formula One rule-makers and would threaten to leave so that also created some fun cars especially during the mid 1980s.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ferrari XX Programmes<\/span><\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Ferrari XX Race Cars<\/h2>\n

In this section we focus on Ferrari’s FXX programs as well as special edition track-only cars. The Ferrari FXX is a high-performance track-only developmental program where Ferrari takes street-legal flagship models and turns them into track cars. It is a more bit complicated though. Customers pay a few million dollars but are only allowed to drive the car on special track days which are approved by Ferrari. The FXX may be stored by owners wherever they please. The caveat behind the FXX is only that Ferrari technicians must look over the car before the car hits the track in any event or private testing session. The owners of the FXX also participate in Ferrari’s testing and brand development programs. The purpose of this particular program is to offer Ferrari\u2019s most privileged customers the opportunity to \u2013 along with owning the car \u2013 participate in up to track test days. This was done while a team of Ferrari employees provided track-side support, a pit crew, and engineers tasked with mining data during each session for research and development purposes.<\/span><\/p>\n
