Alfredo “Dino” Ferrari died from Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy 60 years ago Alfredo Ferrari (1932-1956) was an Italian automotive engineer and the first son of automaker Enzo Ferrari. Alfredo was nicknamed Dino. He had Duchenne muscular dystrophy and died at the age of 24. After his death the Ferrari ‘Dino’ was fitted with the engine that Alfredo was working on and Enzo Ferrari named the car in honour of his son. 1 From an early age Enzo groomed Alfredo to be his successor. Alfredo studied economics in Bologna before moving to mechanical engineering in Switzerland. Over time, it became clear that something was wrong. Doctors had no idea what was afflicting him and he only managed to complete two years of his engineering education before returning to Modena. In his short career at Ferrari, Alfredo was credited for the 750 Monza racing car and to a limited extent a 1.5-litre V6 that would later see action in Ferrari’s early Formula racers. Alfredo suggested to his father the development of a 1.5 L DOHC V6 engine for F2 at the end of 1955. Twelve years later, to honour his son, Enzo named the Dino series of road and racing Ferraris using this V-6 engine after him. Alfredo had Duchenne muscular dystrophy. In the final days of his life, while hospitalized, he discussed technical de- tails of the 1.5-litre V6 with fellow engineer Vittorio Jano. Alfredo would never see the engine, he died in Modena on 30 June 1956 at the age of 24. The death of Alfredo took a toll on his parents’ marriage. Enzo had another son, Piero, with another woman, Lina Lardi. As divorce was illegal in Italy until 1975, Piero was officially acknowledged as Enzo’s son after Laura died in 1978. Piero Ferrari is a 10% owner of the Ferrari company of which he is the vice chairman. The Autodromo Dino Fer- rari in Italy is also named in Alfredo’s honour, with his father’s name added after Enzo Ferrari’s death in 1988. Tour De Bretagne by Nita Simpson ever you have wondered which classic car tour to undertake I would highly recommend the Tour de Bretagne, organised by Neil and Annie Roden of Classic Motoring Organisation and supported by Brit Assist and the lovely Norman and Jo. This year was the largest number of vehicles at 32 and had a very wide range of marques and ages of vehicles including eleven MGs and ranging from series one land rovers, Jag XK140’s Healeys and Porches to a modern TVR and Jag XKFR This year was our third ‘tour’ and it did not disappoint. Mark and Marina in their lovely 1963 MGB roadster ‘Iris’, Neil and Roz Partridge in their red MGA nicknamed ‘Drippy’ and us in our MG RV8 ‘Fern’. We began in style with us girls partaking of a bottle of Prosecco while the boys ‘fiddled ‘with the cars and off we set for Portsmouth. At the docks we met up finally with the ‘Chuggas’ Claire and Phil in their Series 1 landrover ‘Gizmo’, nicknamed ‘Party on Wheels’, Sue and Rubie in Phil’s long wheelbased landrover ‘Chugaboom’ now nicknamed ‘The Shed’ and Becky and Andrew in Sue’s Triumph Herald ‘Betsy’ now nicknamed ‘Hark’ (try hard here.) See photos on next page below. 2 Once on board and in the bar Mojitos were the order of the day and then Dinner in the restaurant washed down with a bottle of Verve Cliquot. Well someone has to do it. Do you see a theme here? There was an electric storm as we sailed to St Malo and arrived with the boat’s fog Horn blaring and a heavy mist enveloping the lovely walled town of St Malo. This year the start was very close to the port so we had the opportunity to mooch around the town and soak up some history as well as soaking up a lot of rain. We hoped for hood down weather once the tour began. Here are the ‘Chuggas’ at the start ready for the off from Cancale a lovely little tourist town by the sea to the east of St Malo. Just time for a coffee and loo stop before the adventure began. We travelled east along the Cote de Emeraude towards Mont St Michel then inland to Pontorson for a coffee break and a visit to a Patisserie then over into Normandy, to St Hillaire du Harcouet sited on the strategic frontier between Brittany, Normandy and the Loire. The many ornate bicycles reminded us tht the Tour de France begins at Mont St Michel and travels through some of the towns on our route too. Here in this pretty town was was our lunch stop and a further stop in the lee of Chateau Comborg (right) for coffee (and Prosecco) then a lovely run to Lanvallay by Dinan and our hotel for our evening Dinner and entertainment. Day two took us west towards the awesome Fort La Latte on the coast, a fortified castle of great historical and architectural interest, dating from the 13th Century a must see location. Photo on the right below was taken from the top of the tower as seen on the right below. Stunning or what? We travelled on to the 20’s resort of Sables d’Or les Pines for coffee. This resort was originally built to rival Deauville. On our well planned route we passed the ruins of Chateau de la 3 Hunaudaye and on to Jugon Des Lacs for lunch. This is a Petite Citie de Charactuer de Bretagne built to defend the long since lost castle and is surrounded by medieval buildings. Our final official stop was at the Chateau Caradeuc where we had freedom of the fabulous grounds and able to admire the stunning view from our parking place. The chateau is privately owned and although ‘Madame’ was at home she did not invite us in for tea. (:o(). Below shows the fabulous topiary of the driveway as well as the three musketeers. The final day of our holiday, Sunday, gave us time to mooch around Dinan as we were very close to St Malo and the ferry on Monday. Dinan is one of Brittany’s best preserved old towns. We crossed the narrow bridge you can see in the photos middle right, over the Rance to the far side of the river opposite our hotel and under the high viaduct you can see in the background. We followed the switchback road high up to the main town. The photo on the left was the view of the low bridge and viaduct taken from the ramparts of Dinan. 4 We managed to park easily and walked past the church of St Catherine, right and …… …to the Basilica St Sauveur…………….with its well-known ornate Altar, left ……. …and on into the medieval town centre for coffee and finally for lunch after a spot of shopping. Luckily for the boys there is not much room in two seater classic car. I cannot find enough fine words to describe this gem of a town and the higgledy piggledy medieval buildings so I will let the photos do the talking here. ……….and so to lunch……………. Girls just want to have fun! Especially with a handsome waiter. Well one has to keep up the champagne intake doesn’t one? A fabulous long weekend with fine food, lots of champagne, great friends, interesting cars, lovely roads and NO TRAFFIC…….Whats not to like? 5 A Touring Tale by Gil Ratcliffe The Rover Sports Register held it’s National Rally on 26th June at the Milestones Museum in Basingstoke. The RSR was founded in 1953 by three Rover 12 Tourer owners who worked for Kodak in Harrow, and ini- tially there were 7 cars, all pre war tourers from the area, but later in the year, notices were put in various car magazines that a club for all Rovers was being formed, and by the end of the year there were 70 members. DML 560, my 1936 12 Tourer, was, I find, one of those initial 7 cars, being owned at the time by one Ralph Brewer of Harrow, RSR records from 1953 show him as the second owner and it having covered 70,000 miles. So despite it having been in pieces for 9 years I was determined that it would be at the National Rally on my doorstep in some form or an- other. Having cleaned up and painted the chassis that had been shot blasted 9 years ago, I put it on a trailer and bolted the rest of the body panels, and a radiator.

  • Enzo Ferrari
    F1 People – Enzo Ferrari Welcome to the third episode of F1 People, a short series from Sidepodcast chronicling the lives of important figures in Formula 1. Today, we look at Enzo Ferrari. Enzo Ferrari was born on February 20th 1898, in Italy. At the age of ten, he attended his first motor race with his father and brother, and after a few more visits to the racetrack, he decided he wanted to be a racing driver as well. His formal education was not particularly strong, and he joined the army. In 1916, his father and brother died, and two years later, Ferrari was struck down with a flu bad enough to cause his discharge from the army. Returning home, he found the family business – a metal fabrication firm – in ruins, and started applying for jobs at car companies. After being turned down by Fiat, he found work at a small firm turning used trucks into cars. He joined the company’s racing team CMN in 1919 but was not very successful. He moved on to work and race at Alfa Romeo, having slightly more success, and at one race in 1923, he picked up the Prancing Horse badge. The badge came from the wreckage of the fuselage of Francesco Barracca’s plane, being a primary figure in Italy during World War 1. Ferrari was presented the badge by the pilot’s family, in recognition of his courage and audacity. After several more wins and successes, Alfa Romeo offered Ferrari a chance to enter higher competitions, but he refused, racing only a couple of times more before giving up the wheel.

  • Histoire De La Formule 1 1 Histoire De La Formule 1
    Histoire de la Formule 1 1 Histoire de la Formule 1 L'histoire de la Formule 1 trouve son origine dans les courses automobiles disputées en Europe dans les années 1920 et 1930. Elle commence réellement en 1946 avec l'uniformisation des règles voulue par la Commission sportive internationale de la Fédération internationale de l'automobile (FIA) et la création de la « Formule de Course Internationale n°1 Alberto Ascari sur Maserati 4CLT/48 à Silverstone en 1949 », pour indiquer la qualité optimale, comprimée en Formule 1[1] . Un championnat du monde de Formule 1 est créé en 1950 puis une coupe des constructeurs en 1958 (qui devient le Championnat du monde des constructeurs à partir de 1982). L'évolution de la discipline est étroitement liée à celle des performances des voitures et de la réglementation technique des compétitions. Bien que le gain du Championnat du monde reste le principal objectif, de nombreuses courses de Formule 1 ont eu lieu sans être intégrées au Championnat du monde (compétitions hors championnat). La dernière en date, disputée à Brands Hatch, s'est déroulée en 1983. Des championnats nationaux ont également été organisés en Afrique du Sud et au Royaume-Uni dans les années 1960 et 1970. Débuts (1950-1957) Premiers championnats du monde (1950-1951) Histoire de la Formule 1 2 En 1949, la Fédération internationale de motocyclisme organise le premier Championnat du monde de Grand Prix moto. En 1950, la Fédération internationale de l'automobile (FIA) l'imite en organisant le championnat du monde des pilotes automobiles qui adopte les règlements techniques et sportifs de la Formule 1.

  • Beleza, Força E Originalidade Do Design Italiano Marcam Nova Exposição Da Casa Fiat De Cultura
    BELEZA, FORÇA E ORIGINALIDADE DO DESIGN ITALIANO MARCAM NOVA EXPOSIÇÃO DA CASA FIAT DE CULTURA Inédita e com ambientes imersivos, mostra “Beleza em Movimento – Ícones do Design Italiano” propõe diálogo entre arte e design ao reunir obras de arte, automóveis e objetos assinados por designers consagrados Há mais de um século, a Itália encanta e provoca o mundo pela originalidade e pela elegância visionária de seu design. Esta ousadia na criação de formas, a busca da perfeição e a adaptação à funcionalidade, com reverberações no presente e inspirações para o futuro, será apresentada ao público de 13 de agosto a 3 de novembro de 2019, em Belo Horizonte, na exposição “Beleza em Movimento – Ícones do Design Italiano na Casa Fiat de Cultura”, que, pela primeira vez, ocupará todas as galerias do espaço. Inédita, a mostra reúne impressionante acervo, composto por mais de 100 peças, entre obras de arte, automóveis, objetos, miniaturas e instalações multimídia. Com curadoria de Peter Fassbender, Head do Design Center LATAM da Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, e colaboração da arquiteta e historiadora italiana Maddalena D’Alfonso, a exposição abordará os contextos cultural e social da Itália no século XX, traçando diálogos entre arte e design. Entre os temas abordados estão o futurismo, a tecnologia, o cinema e o neorrealismo, e o movimento e a beleza que percorrem as formas que se tornam substância do pensamento. A entrada é gratuita. A narrativa da mostra se desenvolve a partir de cinco importantes ícones do design de automóveis, responsáveis por pautar novas estéticas entre as décadas de 1910 e 1960: casas Bertone, Touring Superleggera, Pininfarina, GFG Style e Zagato – a qual, este ano, celebra seu centenário.
