Comments
The works cars were ready for the 1955 edition of
the Carrera Panamericana, but the organizers were forced to cancel the
road rally. The large number of fatal accidents in the previous
runnings, the poor state of the roads along the route and the large
number of military personnel needed to guard the event were among the
reasons for the cancellation. Ferrari campaigned the works racers just
once, in the 1956 Buenos Aires Grand Prix where both cars failed to
finish.
