Ferrari V12 F1 engine

Automotive Engines

The Ferrari V12 F1 engine is the family of twelve-cylinder racing engines that Ferrari built for Formula One in three periods, 1950 to 1951, 1964 to 1980 and 1989 to 1995. The earliest were the supercharged 1.5 litre Colombo engine and the larger naturally aspirated Lampredi engines of 3.3, 4.1 and 4.5 litres, which gave Ferrari its first World Championship race win at Silverstone in 1951. The 3 litre 312 engines followed the 1966 regulation change, and the 3.5 litre Tipo 035 to 043 units appeared after turbochargers were banned in 1989. The Tipo 043 reached about 850 horsepower at 15,800 rpm in 1994, the most powerful naturally aspirated V12 ever used in Formula One. The last, the 3 litre Tipo 044/1, ran in 1995 before Ferrari changed to V10 engines. Derived versions also powered sports prototypes such as the F333 SP and the road-going Ferrari F50.
