Did Not Finish

Interestingly, this is the same race that is the focus of the new Ferrari film starring Adam Driver as Enzo Ferrari. As if the death of his son and impending bankruptcy wasn't enough, a terrible crash in the race involving a Ferrari sent Enzo to court. This would also be the last ever Mille Miglia due to the crash.

Entry #236 in the 54° Targa Florio on May 3 1970 was an Abarth OT "Periscopio" 1300 driven by Guido Garufi and Francesco Troia of the "Scuderia Pegaso" racing team. They won their class (1300 ccm) and ended 34th overall. More about the car: "Periscopio" is a roof-mounted air intake to feed air to the drivers, and "OT" means Omologato Turismo.
