Scuderia Ferrari History

Enzo Ferrari

Scuderia Ferrari History

The grandest and most historical name in Formula 1, Scuderia Ferrari have been a part of Formula One since its inception in 1950. The Italian team are unparalleled and have won 15 drivers championships and 16 constructors’ championships, while also holding the records of most wins, most points, most podiums and most one-two’s.

Any young driver aspires to drive for Ferrari, they are seen to be the pinnacle of the motor sport world. Their history, their grandeur and their success have given them a mystical status within the sport, and drivers such as Fangio, Lauda, Prost and Schumacher have added to their global appeal and reputation.

The team is named after their founder Enzo Ferrari, while Scuderia is a Italian term for a stable kept for racing horses, hence the teams nickname ‘the prancing horse’.

Ferrari’s first F1 car the 125S

Ferrari’s illustrious history started in the sports embryonic years as Alberto Ascari won the 1952 Formula 1 championship, the only Italian to do so. In 53 he defended his title but his premature death but pave to an era of dominance.

The legendary Juan Manuel Fangio signed for Ferrari and won the 1956 F1 world championship, his fourth and the teams third. In 1958 both Ferrari drivers Luigi Musso and Peter Collins died in accidents, however Brit Mike Hawthorn went on to win his sole world championship in 1958 F1 season.

In the first decades of Formula 1 it was quite common for drivers to suffer fatal crashes. Safefty poor and drivers even didn’t had a seatbelt yet. Ferrari battled through the pain and prolonged their early success.

The sixties brought further championships for Phil Hill and John Surtees but the team entered a decline as British teams Lotus and Tyrell started to dominate the sport. In the 1960’s the sport was at its most notoriety for death and heavy crashes. Ferrari suffered casualties such as Wolfgang Von Tripps and Lorenzo Bandini, while Mike Parkes suffered career ending injuries after a near fatal crash.

Ferrari were out of sync at the top until the mid-70’s when they signed Austrian Nikki Lauder. Lauder held off James Hunt’s McLaren to win the 1975 world championship reinstating the Prancing Horse at the top. Lauder suffered a near fatal accident in 1976 which left him with severe burns, but he bravely returned to the sport and won his second title in 1977. Ferrari were at the pinnacle of the sport again in the seventies and the enigmatic Giles Villeneuve and Jody Scheckter looked to have a promising future in the 80’s after Scheckter won the 1979 title.

However British manufacturers Williams and McLaren dominated the decade with driving talent such as Ayrton Senna, Nigel Mansell, Alain Prost and Nelson Piquet.  Ferrari signed Prost after his fall out with Senna in 1990 but were denied the title due to the Brazilian’s suspiciously unfair antics. This was a close as the team got and in 1996, 17 years since their last title, they signed the hottest driver on the grid, Michael Schumacher. The double world champion was tasked with returning the glory days to Maranello. In 1997 he was close but his underhand tactics saw him lose to Jacques Villeneuve’s (Gilles son) Williams. In 1998 Schumacher narrowly lost to his great rival Mika Hakkinen in the McLaren while in 1999 a broken leg denied him the opportunity. Eddie Irvine, Schumacher’s team mate, came close but eventually succumbed to Hakkinen.

However all of the teams mis-fortune proved to be the calm before the storm, and as F1 entered a new millennium it also entered its most dominant era. Ferrari and the incredible Schumacher won five titles in a row between 2000-2004, in cars that were unbeatable. They reached out to a new generation of fans and created history that is unlikely to ever be repeated. Since the Schumacher days, Ferrari has been regularly competing at the top, although losing ground on new team Red Bull. Kimi Raikkonen won the 2007 title, Felipe Massa almost won in 08 and now they have signed the double champion Fernando Alonso.

Ferrari are the Real Madrid of motor sport, either you love them or hate them. They have largest fan base in the sport, helped in large by their famed ‘tifosi’, an army of loyal Italian fans. When Ferrari races the whole nation supports them, in total contrast to a country supporting drivers rather than teams, the tifosi are unrivalled when F1 arrives in Monza for the Italian Grands Prix.

The team now have to find their way past current constructer champions Red Bull, and show who’s boss once and for all.
