    THE GREEN F1 FERRARI

    Despite of the fact that Rosso Corso has always been the colour of Ferrari’s racing cars and the F1 racing colour of Italy, there has been one Ferrari of the type 125 F1(was Ferrari first F1 racing model pictured below) painted in the Green British Racing colour, that raced in 1950 with the number 16 for “Thinwall” British team and was driven by the great Alberto Ascari.
    In Formula One the colour was not determined by the country the car was made in nor by the nationality of the driver(s) but by the nationality of the team that was entering the vehicle. Tony Vandervell the team owner, produced Thinwall bearings at his Vandervell Products factory at Acton, London.

    Great picture!
    Enzo Ferrari bought some English bearings and had them copied to use in his own race engines...

    Thank you for your guess. To my eye it seems to be from the family of Verde Masoni Opaco but as you know the diference in quality of the pictures can mislead the judgment.

    Very nice color. Even an untrained eye like mine can identify this one as being matte.

    Identifying colors needs a very trained eye and I had much more difficulty in identifying this grigio silverstone opaco. When I saw the picture at a first glance it looked like a grigio ferro photographed under a very strong light but after looking at it with more attention I realized it couldn't be but I wasn't able to detect the opaco.
