Friday's Ferrari

This was one of the competitors in the 1950s Sports Car Race at the Coys International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 1999.

It's the 1959 Ferrari  250 TR59/60 of Paul Pappalardo, chassis #0774TR, with the Gioacchino Colombo designed 2,953cc V12 engine. The car won the 1960 Buenos Aires 1000km race in the hands of Phil Hill and Cliff Allison and followed that up by winning the 1960 Le Mans 24 Hour race driven by Olivier Gendebien and Paul Frère. Next to the car here is Paul Pappalardo's Ferrari 250 GTO #5111GT.
