Red Ferrari F1 cars

[killer]

Yup. They raced the Indy 500 in that color. Enzo did it to call the bluff of F1.

Didn't Surtees get his Formula One Driver's title in the NART-livery car? Or was it his last race in a Ferrari? Also, amico mio: didn't that bluff to race Indy never happen? Please correct me if I am mistaken.

They never raced it when it wasn't a round of F1

No matter the shade of RED, any car painted red on or off track just says Ferrari.

Even during the the 60's when Triumph and (the frog eyed little sportster the name of which escapes me at the moment were painted red ) they were painted red as the go faster colour a, in a way to gain association with Ferrari sports cars which were the fastest at that time.

But red still means Ferrari as Black means Guiness , two of the most successful examples of colour branding in the world.

No need for change or rebranding

This is the Ferrari 246 F1 s/n 0006 of Phil Hill at the US Grand Prix December 12th 1959 at Sebring.

Does anyone have any others pictures or footage on this car?

I'd love to see it Thank you!
I forgot to mention, I'm looking for color pictures.
The first picture would be fine, but it has too poor quality(. It looks like it's a screenshot from some film about this GP (or '59 season..) which I've failed to find anyway

I believe that I have a few more - though none in color - but cannot get to that hard drive at this time.

This car is still in upstate New York, the 1964 World Championship Winner for Sir John Surtees. Francois Sicard still works on this car.. The reason it was this color is Enzo pulled out of F1 that year after an argument and Luigi Chinetti took the car, painted it this color and ran it under Ferrari NART and won the championship. Not many people know that Luigi gave Enzo his first job at Alfa and both were life long friends..

I think there has been a yellow Ferrari's who have ran in F1, not sure if it was the official Scuderia or if it was a privateer with a Ferrari tho....



***Edit, i did some searching, didn't find anything then i found this picture:

And John Surtees drove a white/blue for the last races in 1964; but i think Surtees drove the white/blue one under another team name then the Scuderia..

It was the NART livery, the car is still in upstate NY and Francois Sicard still works on the car.. Luigi Chinetti ran the car for Enzo through NART.

The yellow is Belguim..Ecure Ecosse, which I thought were the yellow were actually team Scotland who never raced a Ferrari in F1, and their color was blue metallic.
The Indy Ferrari did exist, as Road & Track had a pic of it back when.

Mr. Chinetti came to the states with the team to race a Ferrari at Indy and then stayed..
