Remember the Ferrari F125 TDE spotted in the UAE in May last year? The wild creation goes by another name as it has made its formal debut at Yas Marina as the Veloqx Fangio. If the association of these words doesn't sound familiar, the latter word should though, "Veloqx" is a motorsport team. It triumphed at the 12 Hours of Sebring in 2004 when it also finished in second place at the 24 Hours of Le Mans with an R8.
"Fangio" is a tribute to iconic five-time F1 championship winner Juan Manuel Fangio. He also competed in the two endurance races we mentioned above, as well as at the 24 Hours of Spa. In addition, he won the 1953 Carrera Panamericana. The legendary Argentinian driver competed for Alfa Romeo, Ferrari, Lancia, Maserati, and Mercedes, plus for some defunct automakers like Gordini and Talbot-Lago.
