Clemente Biondetti raced 1 GP with a Ferrari #22 in 1950 in the Italian GP
started 25 and blew up his engine in 18th place

Ernesto Brambilla 1963 Italian GP check the pic

 

[250lm]

Just as I thought, Biondetti drove a 'bastard' car in the 1950 Italian GP. He drove a Ferrari 166S with a Jaguar engine. Okay, he drove a Ferrari, but it all depends on what your definition of a Ferrari is of course. There were also Cooper-Ferrari's, Dallara-Ferrari's, Sauber-Petronas etc, etc...

Tino Brambilla was a DNS at the 1969 Italian GP. Rodriguez drove instead of Brambilla. I am not sure if Brambilla drove in qualifying, but I think I remember he did not.

As for the last one I miss, he was entered only once by the Scuderia and was a dnf.

I don't think it is a Ferrari, since Brambilla was a DNQ at this event in a Scuderia Centro Sud Cooper T53-Maserati !!!!!!


Niels

 

[Dj Dirk]

I know that from Biondetti, but from the outside it looked at a Ferrari, so i counted it. Besided in the 50ths its pretty hard to have everyhting correct
and Brambilla was a DNQ, correct
I was having doubt of the car??
are you sure of that??

So i'm missing one, damn gotta hit the books again then

 

[250lm]

Yep, I am pretty sure. The logo on the nose doesn't look like a Ferrari badge either and those cars used to have a SF emblem on the sides as well. I have never seen the car, but the logo on your pic could be of a Cooper.

As for Biondetti, you are right, it is difficult to name a car correct. I just keep the records filled with Ferrari-Ferrari's !


Niels

 

[250lm]

BTW, I give you a hint! Try the periond 1960-1970 on the last one!

Niels

 

[Dj Dirk]

I think that i've found him
Andrea de Adamich
South African GP 1968 started 7th had an accident when he was 7th

 

[250lm]

That's the guy! Now tackle the other three questions

Niels

 

[Dj Dirk]

those other three are harder, but i still have the rest of the week to find the answers.

I wonder why nobody else takes a crack at it?

 

[250lm]

I dunno, I think number 2 and 4 aren't that hard, when you know where to look! You probably know that Ferrari won 154 GP's so start there! As for the shared-win, this is easy!


Niels

 

[250lm]

Okay, here are the winning answers:

Gilles Villeneuve lost a tyre/wheel in the Tarzan Corner at Zandvoort in 1979. After he stopped in the grass/gravel of this first corner, he restarted the car, drove backwards onto the track again and drove to the pit (some 4 km further!) on three wheels to find out that it was useless to continue.

The 1956 Argentinian GP saw a joint victory of Fangio and Luigi Musso in the Lancia-Ferrari D50. In those days it was possible to switch drivers per car.

Of the 154 Ferrari GP wins, 56 races saw another Ferrari driver finishing second.



So, nobody can receive the keys of a brand new Ferrari Enzo I had in mind as the price for the five correct answers :wink:


Niels

 

[Dj Dirk]

Sorry Niels

I had completely forgot to search for the answers of the last questions.

Got some more??

 

[250lm]

Since it is winter time and the championship are in the pocket again some F1 related questions again:


1) How many drivers have won multiple championships with Ferrari and what were their names?
2) How many (Ex-)world champions have been driving for Ferrari and what were their names?
3) Which ex-Ferrari driver has won the F3000 title before he entered F1?
4) Which driver was the reserve driver in 1994 and entered some GPs?
5) How many Ferrari Indycars were built and what was their best result?


Niels

Since it is winter time and the championship are in the pocket again some F1 related questions again:
5) How many Ferrari Indycars were built and what was their best result?

Only one Indy car was made and in never saw a race. It was a prototype and built as a means of twisting arms at F1 with the fear of Ferrari leaving F1.

 

[smokeydonuts]

Are you sure about the GTO being designed by Enzo? I thought Giotto Bizzarrini had a great hand in that one as wel as Fiorovanti ???

As for the 857s, it is a fifties sports racer, I think the Carrera Panamerica was won with one. The only two 4 cylinders I know are the Monza and the Mondial, so now I am taking a wild guess at a 500 F2.

Niels

Yes you are 100% correct about Bizzarrini and Fiorovanti, in fact according the book I read Enzo went to them with the project and told them what needed to be done. But it was Enzo himself that drew the body panels on paper. They just did all the other stuff chassis, engine etc. Again I should have been more specific and said he drew the cars body. Another of the 7 I-4s is the 500 Testa Rossa. Still 4 to name.

Wow... great thread! I'm surprised nobody got the other four I-4 motored cars though. Add to that list the 625 TF (looks like a Vignale 166MM) & 860 Monza. There's also the 500-625 F2 car, but it's a bored out version of the 500 F2 car & I'm not sure that's what you're looking for.

 

[smokeydonuts]

... and the 625 LM & 735 S, which makes four!

Since it is winter time and the championship are in the pocket again some F1 related questions again:

4) Which driver was the reserve driver in 1994 and entered some GPs?

Niels

Nicola Larini; looked it up. My first instinct was Olivier Panis.

 

[250lm]

Two down, three to go. As far as I know Panis never was on the paycheck of Ferrari.

[ForzaRossa]

Since it is winter time and the championship are in the pocket again some F1 related questions again:

3) Which ex-Ferrari driver has won the F3000 title before he entered F1?

Niels

1992 Luca BADOER Team Crypton F3000
1989 Jean ALESI Eddie Jordan Racing F3000
1986 Ivan CAPELLI Genoa Racing F3000

 

[250lm]

Okay, correct BUT Badoer did not drive a Ferrari in a GP, did he? I know he drove Ferrari engined F1 cars (I think it was a Dallara) but not the Scuderia Ferrari cars!
