Listen Later

On Ferrari Friday's, William Ross from the Exotic Car Marketplace will be discussing all things Ferrari and interviewing people that live and breathe the Ferrari brand. Topics range from road cars to racing; drivers to owners, as well as auctions, private sales and trends in the collector market.

William discusses the history and significance of the last Ferrari to win Le Mans, the 250 LM chassis number 5893. The episode delves into the 1965 race where Ferrari, competing against the Ford GT40s in the prototype class, secured an unexpected victory despite multiple challenges. William shares anecdotes and explores the controversial involvement of third driver Ed Hugus, detailing how the car, initially deemed to have no chance of winning, emerged victorious.
