The P4/5 team and Mr Glickenhaus himself has graciously honored us by sharing their future plans for the P 4/5 Competizione with the L4P community. In the last weeks the interest on this project has raised incredibly and some newspaper, magazine and website have wrongly identified this project as an official FERRARI project something that is clearly not true and that The P4/5 team has never, in any way stated or implied. Here is a little info on what this project is all about, we hope you enjoy another automotive enthusiast passion for the sport.

The P4/5 Competizione reflects Jim Glickenhaus’ passion for cars. In 2005, the American investment professional and car collector asked Andrea Pininfarina to build a one-off sports car with a retro design to pay homage to great endurance cars of the past, particularly to Ferrari “P” series. This was a fascinating challenge entrusted to engineer Paolo Garella (responsible for special projects at Pininfarina and now independent consultant). Ferrari P4/5 by Pininfarina thus came to fruition. Following the presentation of the new car, Glickenhaus proposed Garella to produce a second prototype intended for races. In 2011 the P4/5 Competizione arrived on the scene. Under Paolo Garella’s supervision, the new race car was designed and manufactured by two important names in the racing world, LM Gianetti and N’Technology who created a venture named Pro.To. Under the technical direction of Andrea Adamo, the car was developed from a Ferrari 430 Scuderia and a Ferrari 430 gt2.

P4/5 Competizione team is getting ready to participate in the Nürburgring 24 Hours, showing a vintage automotive spirit which combines passion and competence, craftsmanship and industrial culture. A spirit which returns authenticity to motor racing, focusing the attention both on the sports challenge itself, but also on sharing, through social networks, this unique experience with fans from all over the world. The P4/5 Competizionerepresents a return to the roots of motor racing, when races were not affected by business.
