Friday's Ferrari

I photographed this car in the Donington Park Museum in March 1996.
It's the 3 litre flat-12 1970 Ferrari 312B raced in the 1970 season by Jackie Ickx and Clay Regazzoni and is chassis 003 70. The car was succeeded by the 312B2 in 1971 and was further revised, but still called the 312B2, for the 1972 season. It was second in the World Constructors Championship in 1970, third in 1971 and fourth in 1972. The 1973 car was designated the Ferrari 312B3, but it was a totally redesigned car.

On 18 December 2015 I showed a photograph of this car displayed in the Paddock Suite at the Donington Park SeeRed meeting in 2004.

Friday's Ferrari

This is a photograph taken at the Donington Park Museum in October 1989
It's a Ferrari 312B of 1970, serial number 003 70, and was raced in that season by Jacky Ickx and Clay Regazzoni. Clay Regazzoni won one race that season and Jacky Ickx won three only to be beaten to the World Championship title by Jochen Rindt who became the only driver to win the championship posthumously after he lost his life in a crash during practice for the Italian Grand Prix.
