Ferrari 212 Export
Gioachino Colombo’s V12 was given a further boost in power to 2562.51 cm3.
A new chassis was constructed; one with a more rigid undercarriage, to be able to withstand the 150 bhp the engine was capable of delivering. In the 212 Vittorio Marzotto won the Targa Florio and the Taruffi-Chinetti team came first in the Carrera Panamerica.
