For the WSC 906.
Scuderia Filipinetti, who hasn't heard of them? The wealthy Swiss racing team ran perhaps the greatest variety of racing cars, ranging from the Lotus Cortina to the Shelby Cobra Daytona -and everything in between! Naturally, they also owned a 906 at some point in their decade long reign, entering it in various WSC races, championship and non championship rounds.
In the 1966 Paris 1000km, two French drivers were contacted to drive the car; Jean Guichet and Claude Ballot-Léna, who qualified 10th but failed to finish the race after the brakes failed.
