Ferrari P cars, The Almost Unbeatable Car of the Golden Age

from Auto/Motive · host A/M

Ferrari P cars  In this episode, I cover the Ferrari P cars, purpose-built endurance race cars that would dominate the world of endurance racing starting in 1963. This car would go through multiple generations being continually improved. For years these cars were untouchable, this would change in 1966 with the dominant win at the 24 Hours of Le Mans for Ford, bring home the top 3 positions in the GT40. While the Ferrari P4 would be built to bring victory back to Ferrari, it would fail to do so, losing to Ford again. Ferrari has not won the 24 Hours of Le Mans since their loss in 1966.  Thanks for Listening!  Music:  Finally by Loxbeats https://soundcloud.com/loxbeats?
