1955 Maserati 250F

I took this photograph at Lodge Corner during the Historic Car Championship race at the Aston Martin Owners Club's meeting at Oulton Park in September 1986.
It’s the 1955 Maserati 250F of Anthony Mayman and has a 6-cylinder inline 2,490cc engine. It is chassis #2516, a car that was mainly campaigned for the works team in 1955 by Jean Behra. At the end of that season it was sold to Australian Reg Hunt who raced it successfully for several years and it then passed through the hands of other Australian drivers before being acquired by Cameron Millar in the 1960s. Subsequently owned by Anthony Mayman who allowed a wide range of friends to race the car, and it was driven at this meeting by Rodney Felton.
