Ferrari TR58 n°16

Reproduction in 1/32 of the Ferrari 250 TR58 n°16 which participated in the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1958. It is one of the 11 Ferraris in the race and, like cars #12 and #14, it was entered by the official Ferrari team.

The number 16, which is also a left-drive car, has some subtleties, especially in the front brake air intakes on each side of the grille that are thinner than on the other two. The front hood protrusion of #16 is in the shape of a water drop, while it is in the shape of a triangle for #12 and #14. The rear wing connection to the front of the car has also been redesigned on #16 only.

The first few hours of racing are marked by a traditional sprint here between Stirling Moss’s Aston Martin and the #16 250 TR58 Wolfgang von Trips. He plays as a peer with the race leader by oscillating between 3rd and 4th places.

Shortly after midnight, Wolfgang Seidel goes straight at Arnage. At the end of the drive-in, the car stops in the mud and he is unable to pull it out. It retires at the ninth hour while it was in 3rd position in the previous hour.
