1983 Osella FA1D

This car took part in the Thoroughbred Grand Prix Championship race at the Vintage Sports Car Club's SeeRed meeting at Donington Park in September 2006.
It's the 1983 Osella FA1D of Terry Sayles seen at Redgate Corner during a practice session. The 1983 Osella FA1Ds were created from the crashed remains of the 1982 FA1Cs, and were interim cars with the 2,993cc V8 Cosworth DFV engine that were raced by the team until the Alfa Romeo powered FA1E was available. Piercarlo Ghinzani drove the FA1D for the first three races of the 1983 season and Corrado Fabi for the first eight, but both drivers either failed to qualify or failed to finish in all those races.
