Friday's Ferrari

This car took part in the one hour long Italian Historic Car Cup at the Silverstone Classic meeting in July 2010.

It's the 1966 Ferrari Dino 206S of Harry Leventis, chassis #0834 and he shared the driving in the race with Richard Attwood. The car started off in 1965 as a Dino 166S, with a 1,593cc V6 engine, but later that year was fitted with a 1,987cc V6 engine, and that and further alterations gave it the same configuration as the Dino 206S.

Three cars here in the pit lane during practice for a round of the Shell Ferrari Maserati Historic Challenge race at the SeeRed meeting at Donington Park in September 2004.

Number 90 on the left is the 1966 Ferrari 412P of Harry Leventis, chassis #0844, which was driven in the race by Peter Hardman. It has a 3,967cc V12 engine and started off in 1966 as a Ferrari 330 P3, but in 1967 was converted to a 412P which is the customer equivalent of the 330 P3 works car. It seems the only difference between the two cars is that the works car has Lucas fuel injection and the customer car Weber carburettors - the primary reason  for this was allegedly to make it more difficult for the customer cars to beat the team cars. The car on the right is another of Harry Leventis's cars, the 1965 Ferrari Dino 206SP, chassis #0834, that he drove in the race himself. This car was originally built as a Dino 166P with a 1,593cc V6 engine, but was given a 1,987cc V6 engine later in 1965 and converted to a 206SP. Behind that is the 1966 Ferrari Dino 206S of Lars Wramell with the 1,987cc V6 engine, chassis #006 66, that was originally campaigned by Maranello Concessionaires in 1966 when its first race was in the Tourist Trophy race at Oulton Park in April of that year.

This car competed in a Shell Ferrari Maserati Historic Challenge race at the VSCC's SeeRed meeting at Donington Park in September 2004.

It's the 2 litre V6 1964 Ferrari Dino 206S of Harry Leventis and you can see the official Ferrari overview of the car here. The car is chassis #0834, and on 7 September 2012 I showed a photograph of this car that I took during the race. On 17 February 2017 I showed a photograph that I took of the car at Silverstone in July 2010.

This is a car that took part in the Italian Historic Car Cup race at the Silverstone Classic meeting in July 2010.

It's the 1966 Ferrari Dino 206S of Harry Leventis, chassis #0834. According to the programme of the event Harry Leventis was due to share the driving in this race with Richard Attwood, but the barchetta.cc record says that Nick Leventis drove the car. On 7 September 2012 I showed a photograph of this car at the 2004 SeeRed meeting at Donington Park.

These cars were seen at the SeeRed meeting at Donington Park in September 2004. They are 1980 and 1981 Ferrari 512BB LMs, a car which was initially developed in 1974 by the North American Racing Team of Luigi Chinetti from the 365 GT4 BB. Ferrari began their own development of the car in 1978 and the final version, with the original pop-up headlights replaced by fixed units and the tail lengthened to the maximum allowed by the regulations, achieved a fifth place overall and first in the GTX class at the 1981 Le Mans 24 hour race.

The first three photographs were taken in the pit lane prior to a practice session
