Ferrari 625

Ferrari 625 que competiu em 1954 e 1955. O carro era derivado do 500 de 1952-53, foi pilotado pelo argentino José Froilan "El Cabezon" Gonzalez, Mike Hawthorn e Maurice Trintignant. O carro não era tão competitivo mas venceu duas corridas, em 1954 na Inglaterra com Gonzalez e no ano seguinte em Monte Carlo com Trintignant. Kit Revival, escala 1/20. After two years of F2 regulations the 1954 world championship was raced under F1 regulations again. The new regulations allowed for 2.5 litre naturally aspirated and 750 cc supercharged engined racers. Ferrari modified their 1952 and 1953 world championship winning 500 F2 by boring and stroking the four cylinder engine. Enter the Ferrari 625 F1. Maserati campaigned their six cylinder 250F from the beginning of the season. Halfway through the season Ferrari and Maserati were joined by the straight-eight cylinder engined Mercedes-Benz W196 and the Vittorio Jano designed Lancia D50 V8. Juan Manuel Fangio started the season at Maserati but halfway the season he teamed up with Stirling Moss at Mercedes-Benz. Ferrari's two primary drivers were Froilan Gonzalez and Mike Hawthorn. Both drivers won a GP each, but they were not able to keep with Fangio. In the driver's championship the first three places behind Fangio were filled by Ferrari drivers.For the 1955 season the four cylinder car was further modified but it was no longer competitive. Revival kit, 1/20th scale.
