Lorenzo Bandini, Ferrari
12"x18" $22.00 + $3.50 shipping

He was recruited by Enzo Ferrari for 1962, although he did mainly sports car races. He only competed in three F1 World Championship events, coming third in Monaco. He also won a non-championship F1 race at Enna in Sicily.

In 1963 Bandini was dropped from the Ferrari F1 team but that spring won the Le Mans 24 Hours, sharing victory with Ludovico Scarfiotti. He rejoined the reformed Scuderia Centro-Sud and raced a semi-works BRM that summer, qualifying on the front row in Germany, before being called back to Ferrari. In 1964 he won the Austrian Grand Prix on the bumpy Zeltweg aerodrome circuit after many of the other frontrunners went out with mechanical troubles, but for most of the time he was firmly number two to team leader John Surtees.

In the middle of 1966 Surtees walked out of Ferrari and Bandini found himself as the team's number one driver in Formula 1 supported by Mike Parkes and Scarfiotti. He led races but failed to win and by the middle of 1967 was under pressure. At Monaco he was chasing leader Denny Hulme when he crashed at the chicane and the Ferrari rolled and caught fire. Bandini was trapped in the car and suffered terrible burns from which he died three days later.
