Scuderia Ferrari Formula 1 Results (1960-1969)

Ferrari has competed in every Formula 1 season since its inception in 1950. Here is a comprehensive overview, including details on drivers, points, and both Drivers' and Constructors' Championships results.

1960

After Dan Gurney's move to BRM and Tony Brooks' shift to BRP, Wolfgang von Trips returned to Scuderia Ferrari as a full-time driver. Meanwhile, future Formula 1 Champion John Surtees made his debut with Lotus during the 1960 Formula 1 season. At the Monaco Grand Prix, the second race of the season, Cliff Allison, also driving for Ferrari, suffered a significant crash during practice. This would be his last appearance in a Ferrari single-seater, as he spent the rest of the season recovering. In the following season, 1961, Allison joined Lotus but experienced another severe crash, leading to his retirement from motorsport.

During the 1960 season, Scuderia Ferrari competed with 246 chassis cars. In rounds 2 (Monaco) and 9 (Italy), Wolfgang von Trips and Richie Ginther also drove the Ferrari 246 P chassis. Unlike the traditional front-engine 246 chassis, the 246 P featured a rear-engine design, marking Ferrari’s first foray into this configuration. The car's best result came in Italy, where Wolfgang von Trips secured a fifth-place finish.

1961

In 1960, Ferrari transitioned into a limited company, with Enzo Ferrari as the primary shareholder, leading to the addition of the S.p.A. (Società per azioni, similar to a PLC) abbreviation. SEFAC, which stands for Società Esercizio Fabbriche Automobili e Corse, was the designation used for Ferrari's racing department.

With that context, 1961 marked a triumphant year for Ferrari as they secured another Formula 1 Championship. Phil Hill led the charge, driving the all-new Ferrari 156. This car featured a mid-mounted 1.5-liter V6 engine and was nicknamed the "sharknose" due to its distinctive air intake "nostrils." Wolfgang von Trips finished second in the championship standings, with all Ferrari drivers using the 156 chassis.

Tragically, during the Italian Grand Prix, von Trips collided with Jim Clark. His car veered off the track, ejecting him fatally and causing the death of 15 spectators in what remains Formula One's deadliest accident. Following the tragedy, Ferrari withdrew from the final race of the season but still secured both the Drivers' and Constructors' Formula 1 Championships.

1962

After the great success of 1961, when Phil Hill won the Formula 1 Championship with Scuderia Ferrari, expectations were high for the 1962 season. However, Graham Hill driving for BRM, Jim Clark for Team Lotus, and Bruce McLaren for Cooper Car Company proved too strong for Ferrari, its drivers, and the Ferrari 156 racing cars.

Stirling Moss was set to drive for Scuderia Ferrari in 1962, but a severe accident during the non-championship Glover Trophy left him in a coma for a month. In his place, Giancarlo Baghetti was given the opportunity. Baghetti had already shown his potential by winning the 1961 French Grand Prix and multiple non-championship races in a privately-run Ferrari.

Tragically, Scuderia Ferrari faced another devastating loss when Ricardo Rodríguez crashed during practice for the Mexican Grand Prix. Rodríguez, the youngest driver ever to race for Ferrari, also became the youngest F1 driver to die in the sport's history.

1963

The 1963 Formula 1 season saw future World Champion John Surtees join the Scuderia Ferrari team. Willy Mairesse and Ludovico Scarfiotti were his main teammates, with Lorenzo Bandini stepping in for Mairesse after a serious crash at the German Grand Prix left him with a broken arm. Roberto Lippi also made a one-off appearance, driving a De Tomaso-Ferrari equipped with the same 1.5-liter V6 engine that powered Ferrari's 156 chassis.

Phil Hill, the 1961 champion, and his teammate Giancarlo Baghetti had left Scuderia Ferrari after the 1962 season to join ATS, a new team formed by ex-Ferrari employees. This group, which included chief engineers Carlo Chiti and Giotto Bizzarrini, had broken away from Ferrari following the "palace revolt" of 1961.

Despite Ferrari's efforts, Lotus-Climax and BRM, led by Jim Clark, Graham Hill, and Richie Ginther, dominated the season, taking the top three positions in the championship. John Surtees, in his first year with Ferrari, finished in fourth place.

1964

John Surtees secured the Drivers' Championship with Scuderia Ferrari, marking his first and only title. The competition was intense, with Graham Hill accumulating 39 championship points, making it one of the closest title races in history. This was only the third time in F1 history that the championship was decided in the final race, and for the first time, three drivers and three manufacturers were all in contention for their respective titles. Ferrari also claimed the International Cup for F1 Manufacturers.

The Italian car manufacturer ATS entered the 1963 season with their own chassis, intending to challenge Ferrari. However, after a season plagued by technical issues, they withdrew from the sport. Their driver, Phil Hill, who won the 1961 championship with Ferrari, subsequently moved to Cooper.

In 1964, Enzo Ferrari fiercely protested against the Automobile Club d'Italia over the homologation of the Ferrari 250 LM. As a result, the Ferrari cars were entered by the American privateer North American Racing Team (NART) and were painted in white and blue, the national colors of the United States, instead of the traditional red.

Throughout the season, Ferrari demonstrated their commitment to development by using three different chassis: the 156, 158, and 1512.

1965

The 1965 Formula 1 season proved to be a challenging one for Scuderia Ferrari, facing stiff competition from BRM and Lotus-Climax. Despite strong efforts from drivers John Surtees and Lorenzo Bandini, who secured podium finishes in South Africa, Monaco, France, and Great Britain, the dominant performances of rivals made success hard to attain. Jim Clark, in particular, was formidable, winning six races, while Graham Hill claimed two victories and Jackie Stewart secured one in his debut season. As a result, the highest finish for a Scuderia Ferrari driver was fifth place.

Ferrari fielded two chassis that season: the 158, equipped with a 1.5-liter V8 engine, and the 1512, powered by a 1.5-liter flat-12 engine designed by Mauro Forghieri.
