The Ferrari 412 MI, a bespoke creation of 1958, was Ferrari's audacious foray into single-seater racing, specifically for the 500 Miles of Monza. This one-off racer was designed to challenge formidable American cars in a high-speed showdown. Its naming convention, "412", reflected its potent 4-litre, 12-cylinder engine, while "MI" represented "Monza-Indianapolis". In its only race, the 412 MI not only clinched pole position but also secured a commendable third place, marking the highest finish for a European entry in that event.
