The Ferrari 330 P4, a fascinating open-top two-seater with an extraordinary 4-liter 60° V12 engine developed by engineer Franco Rocchi, with three valves per cylinder and mechanical injection, was Ferrari’s answer to the Ford GT40’s victory in the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans. Enzo Ferrari then asked his engineers to improve on the 330 P3 of the previous year, and they created a car equipped with a new 450 hp engine, longitudinally mounted at the rear in a tubular steel chassis reinforced with aluminum panels and complete with independent front and rear suspension. Able to reach a top speed of 320 km/h on the Hunaudières straight at Le Mans, the 330 P4 made its international debut at the 1967 Daytona 24 Hours, where Ferrari beat Ford on its home turf, marking the triumph with the symbolic procession of its three cars on the final straight. The winner was number 23, driven by Chris Amon and Lorenzo Bandini, a P3/4 spider built in 1966, but benefiting from the engine and upgrades introduced on the new model P4s.

This extraordinary model won not only the Daytona race, but also the 1,000 km of Monza, giving Ferrari another world championship title, before its disappearance following the change in regulations introduced by the International Federation in 1968, which limited the engine capacity of prototypes entered in endurance racing to three liters. This is an extraordinary model that lives up to the deserved reputation of the car itself, one of the most beautiful competition vehicles ever created by the legendary manufacturer of the “Prancing Horse.”
