The Legendary Ferrari 156 “Sharknose”

Introduced for the 1961 Formula One season, the Ferrari 156 became one of the most recognizable Grand Prix cars ever produced.

Its distinctive twin-nostril front air intakes earned it the nickname “Sharknose,” while its lightweight chassis and powerful V6 engine helped Ferrari dominate the 1961 racing season.

Behind the wheel of the Ferrari 156, Phil Hill became the first American-born driver to win the Formula One World Drivers’ Championship. Ferrari also secured the 1961 International Cup for F1 Manufacturers.

The Sharknose remains one of the most celebrated automobiles in Ferrari’s extraordinary racing history.

Danny Day captures the car’s unmistakable styling and racing character with the precision and attention to detail for which his automotive artwork is recognized.

Personally Autographed by Phil Hill

Phil Hill (1927–2008) was one of America’s most accomplished international racing drivers and one of Ferrari’s most celebrated champions.

In addition to his historic 1961 Formula One World Championship, Hill achieved three overall victories at the 24 Hours of Le Mans and multiple victories at the 12 Hours of Sebring.

His authentic pencil signature on this limited edition provides a meaningful historical connection to the Ferrari that carried him to the World Championship.
