The Ferrari 246 F1-66 (also known as 158/246[1]) was a racing car used by Scuderia Ferrari and Reg Parnell Racing during the 1966 Formula One season. It was used in a total of 4 races by 3 drivers, achieving a second and a third place. It was used during the season alongside the Ferrari 312. The design and dimensions of the car were almost identical to the Ferrari 158, except for the bigger 2.4-liter engine; the chassis type used on both models was also the same (Type 579).
Lorenzo Bandini used the 246T for the first two races in 1966. His best result was second place and fastest lap at the 1966 Monaco Grand Prix, followed by third place in Belgium. The car was then put aside until the German Grand Prix, where it was a third team entry driven by Ludovico Scarfiotti. Scarfiotti out-qualified his teammates in their more powerful 3-litre cars, but retired with electrical problems. The final outing for the 246T was the 1966 Italian Grand Prix, lent by Ferrari to Reg Parnell Racing and driven by Giancarlo Baghetti. Baghetti was running as high as fifth until he had problems with his throttle linkage and eventually finished last, nine laps in arrears.
