Luigi Bazzi Biography<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

He was called the soul of Ferrari. He had been there from the beginning and\u00a0Enzo Ferrari<\/a>\u00a0recalled his trusted friend as “the founding member of the old guard of collaborators. Working at Ferrari till he was over eighty when health finally forced him to leave Ferrari’s side. Due to his quiet and unassuming nature to those on the outside he had the appearance of a mechanic or test driver but those with a better knowledge of the inner workings at Ferrari knew that no engine ever left the racing factory without having come under his watchful eye.<\/p>\n

It is estimated that while working with Ferrari he had a hand in over 160 different engines in multiple configurations including his famous Bimotore that had two in a single car! No degree or diploma could fully convey his knowledge of what makes a racing engine “go” that instead was based on many years of experience first at Fiat then Alfa and finally at Ferrari.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
