This volume takes the story of the most famous Italian racing marque of them all from its first, hesitant steps on to the Grand Prix stage in the early post-War years through to its World Constructors' Championship winning status in the highly specialized and complicated world of turbocharged Grand Prix engines in the 1980s. Not only does it explain the technical rationale behind the designs of all Ferraris Grand Prix cars, but it recalls their spectacular racing records in depth, drawing on reflections of such pivotal personalities as Mauro Forghieri, the team's chief engineer for the past two decades, and such racing luminaries as Niki Lauda, Jody Scheckter, Patrick Tambay, Chris Amon, Richie Ginther, Tony Brooks, Clay Regazzoni, Carlos Reutemann, Mike Hawthorn, Juan-Manuel Fangio and Cliff Allison, all of whom contributed to the Ferrari legend with stints behind the wheel of the scarlet Italian Formula 1 cars over the past thirty-six years.
