Echoing from the past, going into the future, the symphony of the Ferrari V12 engine resonates timeless, transcending eras. Starting from the very first car to wear the Ferrari badge: the
#Ferrari125S.
Its magnificent V12 engine was designed by Gioacchino Colombo with contributions from Giuseppe Busso and Luigi Bazzi. The name 125 stems from the unit displacement: multiplying 125 by 12 gives the actual cubic capacity of the engine, nearly 1,500 cubic centimetres.
Enzo Ferrari declared the car’s debut on the
#Piacenza circuit to be a promising failure, however, the model was back on the track 13 times, winning 6 of its races.
