Story behind

A Swede Swerves Through Sicilians

Painted in blue and yellow to represent its Swedish driver, Ulf Norinder navigates his Ferrari 250 GTO through a crowd of spectators on the third lap of the 1964 Targa Florio. Together with Picko Troberg, he would go on to secure 9th place out of 28 finishers.
Already one of the toughest circuits in the world, the race was made even more dangerous by locals gathering dangerously close to the road, often interfering with the action. This unpredictable and chaotic atmosphere became part of the Targa Florio’s identity — and ultimately contributed to its end in 1977.
