Timeline
Virginio Ferrari (born 19 October 1952) is an Italian former professional Grand Prix motorcycle road racer.
Points system from 1969 to 1987:
Ferrari teamed up with Benjamin Grau to win the 1975 1000 km du Mugello endurance race riding a Ducati.
His best season was in the 1979 500cc world championship, when he finished second to Kenny Roberts.
He began the 1979 season with a string of podium results, finishing second to Barry Sheene at the Venezuelan Grand Prix and, second to Kenny Roberts in the Austrian Grand Prix.
He continued to post good results with a third place in Germany and another second place behind Roberts in Italy.
Ferrari dropped from the podium with a fourth place in Spain before bouncing back with another second place to Roberts in Yugoslavia.
His victory at the Dutch TT in Assen together with an eighth-place finish by Roberts, vaulted Ferrari into the championship lead as the series headed towards Belgium.
Ferrari became embroiled in a controversy at the Belgian Grand Prix held at the Spa circuit when he, along with Roberts and other top riders refused to race due to unsafe track conditions.
The circuit had been paved just days before the race creating a track that many of the racers felt was unsafe due to diesel seeping to the surface.
Ferrari along with Roberts, instigated a riders' revolt and refused to race.
The F.I.M. responded by suspending Roberts and Ferrari.
The F.I.M. later reduced this to a probation.
After the Belgian round, Ferrari suffered a series of disastrous results with a fifteenth place in Finland followed by an improved fourth place in Britain before a crash at the season-ending French Grand Prix handed the world championship to Roberts.
Ferrari was the first person on the scene on Kevin Wrettom's and Iván Palazzese's fatal accidents, in 1984 and 1989 respectively.
He attempted to resuscitate them both, but Wrettom died several days later at the hospital, while Palazzese had unsurvivable chest injuries.
After his Grand Prix career, Ferrari switched to the Superbike World Championship in, riding for the Ducati factory racing team.
In 1986 Ferrari rode a Honda NSR250 in a team run by Takazumi Katayama in the World Championship without much success, with just four top 10 results, his best, a 6th place in Silverstone.
Ferrari won the 1987 TT Formula 1 title aboard a Bimota YB4 EI.
Points system from 1988 to 1992:
(key) (Races in bold indicate pole position; races in italics indicate fastest lap)
His last Grand Prix season was in 1989, again in the 250 class, with the Italian made Gazzaniga, failing to score any points and finishing 28th in the Salzburgring and 27th in his last Grand Prix in Brno.
He took over as the team manager until 1998, when Davide Tardozzi took the job.
Ferrari briefly managed the Kawasaki PSG-1 team in the World Superbike Championship in 2007.
He finished 14th in the Championship.
