Enzo Ferrari Museum F1 Exhibit – Photo Gallery

Museo Casa Enzo Ferrari, the Modena, Italy-based museum that opened in 2012 on the site of the house in which Enzo Ferrari himself was born in 1898, is now focusing on the pinnacle of open wheel racing with its current exhibit, entitled “Grand Prix: the Formula 1 Championship Single-Seaters”. The exhibition centers on twenty Formula One cars that helped revolutionize the sport during the years 1950 to 1994, in addition to serving as the rides of many of our heroes from Juan Manuel Fangio to Ayrton Senna.

The twenty cars, which have come from some of the most important museums and collectors in the world, are arranged in what Museo Casa Enzo Ferrari calls an “exhibition path”, intended to highlight the evolution of the cars in terms of aesthetics, performance, and safety. The arrangement is simple but cleanly elegant, and the machines are complemented by accessories such as period racing suits, steering wheels, engines, trophies, watches and, finally, a display of several dozen crash helmets. This “World Champion Line”, as the museum calls it, presents more than fifty helmets used by Formula One World Driving Champions.
