Ferrari 335 S

The Ferrari 335 S was a sports racing car produced by Ferrari between 1957 and 1958, with only four built. It was a direct answer to the Maserati 450S, whose 4.5 litre engine threatened the 3.8 litre 315 S and the 3.5 litre 290 MM. An evolution of the 315 S, it used a developed Jano V12 of 4,023.32 cc making 400 PS at 7,400 rpm, enough for an estimated top speed near 300 km/h, and it was nicknamed the Super Testarossa. It is the car that crashed at the 1957 Mille Miglia, killing driver Alfonso de Portago, his navigator and nine spectators, an accident that ended the race series. A 335 S driven by Peter Collins and Phil Hill won the 1957 Venezuelan Grand Prix, helping Ferrari take the world sports car title, but the 1958 three-litre limit left the car ineligible.
