Racing history
The works cars dominated Formula Two racing for the 1950 season. In 1951, as the Scuderia turned its attention to the new Formula One race cars, the 275 F1, 340 F1, and 375 F1 models, the cars were sold to privateers. Above all, the Swiss Ecurie Espadon used them under the designation 212 F1 for drivers such as Rudolf Fischer and Rudolf Schoeller in the Drivers' World Championship. References
