    Focused on winning the Sports Car World Championship; the race series for commercially produced GT cars, Ferrari used its considerable resources and know-how to create the 250GTO racing sports car based on the 250GT SWB chassis and engine (GTO is an abbreviation for Gran Turismo Omologato, which means it complies with GT class race regulations). Recognized as an automotive ‘work of art’, series 1 of the 250GTO was produced in 1962/1963 and significantly improved with Series 2 in 1964 to compete with rivals. This included the 330LM model classified as a prototype because only 39 units were produced and was equipped with a 4-liter V12SOHC engine from the Ferrari 400 Super America (different to the original 3-liter V12SOHC). Achieving success in a variety of races including the 1962 series championship, the 250GTO’s highlight was its domination of the podium in the 1962 Le Mans 24 Hours. In the GT class where the main honors were determined, No. 19 won the class and finished second overall and No. 22 finished second in the class and third overall, while the 330LM was the overall victor. The following year and the year after that, Ferrari 250GTO won the Sports Car World Championship.
