50 years of F1
How to make the 360 Modena
6 cylinders in line engines
On the cover: the first of the four 6 cylinder cars and the body modified following the requests that its first owner Tony Parravano made to Sergia Scaglietti.
Ferrari F1 Constructors World Champion: this sought after championship was finally obtained this year and soothed the delusion for not having got the Drivers one. If somebody says that Constructors' is a title not worth very much, this is a mistake. In the Ferrari tradition (and Ferrari is the only F1 manufacturer whose tradition spans the Championship's 50 years) it was often the car with its power and reliability to give young drivers the tool with which to emerge, whereas not always a great champion was sufficient to get the Driver's title.
In 50 years Ferrari has built not only the 50 cars that contested the championships but at least another 40 types experimental or used in a few races that deserve to be kept in the marque history.
