ln 1924 the Alfa Romeo works introduced a new car designated the
P2. The car was designed by Vittorio Jano who had previously
worked for Fiat. The P2 naturally showed a strong resemblance to
earlier Fiat designs. This was particularly true of the engine which
was an eight-cylinder design of 2 litres capacity. The engine was
supercharged and gave 140 bhp at 5500 rpm.
The car represented by this mode! is the P2 Alfa Romeo which was
driven by Campari to victory in the French Grand Prix at Lyon. His
average speed for the 503 miles was 70·97 mph. Four cars were
entered for the race to be driven by Campa ri, Wagner, Antonio Ascari
and Enzo Ferrari. Ferrari was ta ken ill before the race and did not take
part. Ascari retired on the 34th of the 35 lap race with engine trouble
and Wagner finished fourth.
