Meet the Father and Son duo and the legendary Ferrari for the Goodwood Revival

In the Classic Driver editorial department it is often discussed, in this era will be one of the most popular travel routes, one of the best there is. Conveniently next to the blue glittering water of the harbor of Monte Carlo to stand, just to catch a glimpse of the passing Silver Arrows of Fangio and Moss, would certainly be a special moment in time. After the American Ferrari 750 Monza with Scaglietti bodywork and chassis number 0510M was equipped and this was a large American driver, there were a few: Those were a very traveling factory for a certain time back in the racing era.

In the middle of the 1950s, sports car racing in America was celebrated. In the federal state and a quick participation in the meetings, while professionals from amateur drivers in their cars and limit drives, one of the best stages of the podium will come. Often on road or airfield courses, the permanent racing lines were first in the construction or planning. When many pilots in the American markets, others looked over the counter towards Europe. The Ferrari 750 Monza was a young flight at the Zermürbenden on September 12 of Sebring in the years 1955. I was in the American racing car white and blue of the cars that no lower as Phil Hill and Carroll Shelby. If you are busy with your phone all the time, there is a wonder that you can see after you have clicked once on the round bells on the Platz. So go for the Sieg and the Briggs Cunningham that uses the Jaguar D-Type of Mike Hawthorn/Phil Walters as a little Trost gewannen Hill and Shelby in the Index of Performance-Wertung.

The Ferrari has never been busy for a year with Hill the Del Monte Trophy at the Pebble Beach Road Races – a story, when Carroll Shelby was in the weeding hole in 1956. I saw Jim Hall in the greatest adventure ever in Ferrari at the military military flight of Fort Sumner in 1955, while there was a fight first. 1957, just like a couple of dazzling works of art – that for the aspiring SCCA National Champion Jack McAfee on a Porsche 550 Spyder – war from the beginning is a great career of space builders of legendary Chaparrals. Hall set the three-liter-four-cylinder Ferrari purchased by his brother Dick until the end of the years were involved in racing in the blessed homeland of Texas. After a Maserati had a great idea, the Ferrari then quickly stayed in the family for 40 years.

Bis is dann 2016 in the Rahmen der Monterey Sale of RM Sotheby’s and the Family Ottis went. Although the legend of racing cars is a Dasein as museum pieces first, then know the Ottis with his world-famous restoration involved Patrick Ottis Company in Berkeley (California) best with Ferraris and motorsport out. Today the world of historic racing is flourishing and erglicht of the father-son duos with Patrick and Tazio, the other heroes of damals in the new Ruhm erstrahlen zu las. A Wednesday during the broadcast of Goodwood Revivals during the great advance of Freddie March Trophy with the 750 Monza announced a horde of Jaguar, Aston Martin and Maserati. If the team had been there, the precious white blue Monza would have dropped out. Erasing a wollen zunächst, where your Liebe zu Autos rührt is. „I had great luck, in one small, well-known Ferrari restoration work. My father, Patrick Ottis, went to work and is still not in his life. I have the feeling that I have lost cars in the workplace, in the Leidenschaft and the Verbindungen, that is very bad, in a community and in the Möglichkeit, von small on the old Formel-1-Tream development.”

Since Tazio spent his entire life in a stable with spinning horses, it is easy to understand why Ferrari is so astonished. Since it so often happens that the best performances come from the Maranello equipment, it is worth having your own property, which is not bigger. It is clear that the duo has such an interesting model in the Besitz: “My father wants a new project, with which I can play together. The end of the ride is that the fork-war Alfa Romeo ends up in Monza. If the car is painted, it is a way to explore American roads and create a livery that is very interesting. It was over, it was a shame and it was noticeable that other cars liked it. And with the Marke Ferrari Geschichte to write. “

It is so that the Ottis family finds the perfect hut a little better than Italian engineering and American racing history and glory. What is the work, with a historical history, is the sports offer very regularly at wettbewerben in all welfare activities?

“First race with the car fan in Laguna Seca statt. If you are on Tag, you have won the Car in Pebble Beach and then you have won a class. If you notice one of the many results, it may be that a car will follow the race route as one of the Concours-Rasen-races – and that is one of the two cases gelungen. It is a war outside of history, the car in one of the ways that the Laguna goes to the race, is the siege with Phil Hill and Shelby now May a meeting with the dangerous Pebble Beach Road Races. “

And so you find Tazio and the 750 Monza after the pick-ups of the Cork-shaped Curve and the Rasenflächen of Pebble Beach now in the Goodwood driving camp again – we will have a few unglazed weeks with historic races. When Laguna Seca with eleven curves turns up, is gilded on the historic Kurs of Goodwood, will now be impressed, but the Kurs-keinesweg is a fact. When looking at it may be that you are working with lawsuits. After the Australian car sun zones have been raised, the corks and a slop have become a lot bigger for an American Muscle Car, which has an unparalleled experience for him. „Goodwood is a fantastic stretch. If you are an old-school courier, then it is so that it is so beautiful. Vom Gefühl her a relatively schnelle and kurze Runde, with a clean flow. After your session, I would be happy to receive a few Extra-Rounds!”, Tazio wishes.

No risk – no fun! The Revival abolishes what is another event in the Splits of the Feier of the historical Motorsports and the Nervenkitzel of the Wettbewerbs. Jedes Rennen is a huge player and a big player, after the Freddie March Memorial Trophy is the best and most valuable of all. Why the fans show a part of the spectacle an unglazed spectacle, but how do we set a story with a historical and finanziell so full that car could be used for Tazio at all? The war against the Antwort was a fact, but it was said: „Ich mache mir nie allzu veele Gedanken über mögliche Schäden an unserem Monza. Zum Glück is not really passive, and maybe it is not so passive! I think this is a way to make it bigger and bigger, it is good here, reinforced and accentuated. It is clear that all one can be certain that they can carry out a thorough study and that they can run heartily, and that the power of the Travel of the Geese is also possible. “If die autodamals die Zielinie in Sebring überquerte or in New Mexico die Zielflagge sah, war der Wagen ein Werkzeug, aus dem Wunsch hereaus geschaffen, siegreich zu sein. Over the years, Ferrari’s strength in the multi-year Million Regions has increased – the 750 Monza 0510 M sold for 5.225 Million Dollars in 2016.

Beyond the high starting fields, drivers can experience their own legend of motorsport at the Goodwood Revival Tuchfühlung. The 750 Monza is said to have achieved the highest water resistance of the signal in the 50th century. If we are a gefragt, it is a car gift that Tazio is telling a lie. If you are a rennerfahrer, it is no longer a car that is gilded: “Of course I would like to beat all cars! There is a great way to buy and drive a car! It is so nice, for the D-Types are their signal, but that was a great challenge in the past!” In the starting fields you will find a number of icons from Formula 1, from the Touring Car and from Le Mans – all together during the Love for Racing. An ex-formal-1-fahrer with Jenson Button. Angesichts der seltenen Occasion, mit Spitzen-Fahrern Rad an Rad zu fahren, wolten wir winst, was das für Tazio bedeutet: „Mit Fahrern wie ihm, der sich as ebenso greater Fan dieser Ära of Autos und der Geschichte, who wurde Empfindet, a Runde Rad and Rad on the Racing Track of verbs, a schon is a Vergnügen. And it could be that the Kirsche goes to the Sahnehäubchen.”

Tazio shows both that racing is as intense as it is in the world. Spätestens, sobald are the historical correctness in general and the helmet that stands on the mountain. It was all not more dramatic when the rain occurred. If Tazios Fortschritte in 750 Monza was followed over the entire week’s hind road, then there is a whole day of the Veranstaltung fahren – in Training, Qualifying and in the Race itself!
