In the early days, before the First World War, Fiat was a major contender in Grand Prix racing, and employed many of the leading drivers of the era.
Although it withdrew from Grand Prix racing in 1927, Fiat cars were still to be seen participating in high-profile races, such as the Mille Miglia.
In these events most Fiat models were sports editions of the highly successful ’Balilla’ range.
In 1952 the introduction of the sensational 8V coupé resulted in many racing successes in private owners’ hands, while the late 1950s saw the introduction of ‘Formula Junior’ class of racing and Fiat-engined cars were very successful in the early years.
