Ferrari 312 P Spyder Sebring Racing Version 1969 This is the 1969 Ferrari 312P Spyder driven at Sebring by Chris Amon and Mario Andretti. As the rules of the International Sports Car Championship were changed in 1968, Ferrari was confronted with the predicament of having no race car to compete in this important tournament. But in late 1968, Ferrari managed to stage a comeback, thanks to the quickened development of the prototype 312P. This sports car was originally meant to be Ferrari`s answer for the 1969 season. It enabled the factory team or the Scuderia Ferrari to race with a competitive car now.
