The 330 P4 was designed specifically for endurance racing and was equipped with a powerful 4.0-liter V12 engine that produced around 450 horsepower. The car also featured aerodynamic bodywork, which gave it a distinct look and improved its performance on the track.

In terms of race victories, the Ferrari 330 P4 had an impressive track record. It won its debut race, the 1000 km Monza, driven by Mike Parkes and Lorenzo Bandini. The car then went on to win the 24 Hours of Daytona in 1967, driven by Pedro Rodriguez and Jean Guichet. The same year, it won the 12 Hours of Sebring, driven by Mario Andretti and Ludovico Scarfiotti.

The Ferrari 330 P4 also competed in the 1967 24 Hours of Le Mans. The car was leading the race until the final hours when it suffered engine problems and had to retire. Despite not winning at Le Mans, the car's performance in other races cemented its place in history as one of Ferrari's greatest race cars.

The drivers who piloted the Ferrari 330 P4 to victory were some of the best in the business. In addition to those mentioned earlier, Chris Amon, Nino Vaccarella, and Richard Attwood all drove the car to victory in various races.

This prancing horse was a technical masterpiece that combined power and aerodynamics to create a truly exceptional race car. Its success on the track and lasting impact on the world of motorsports make it a true icon of its time. #racing #racingcars #cars #carstr #grownostr
