In the preceding years, it seemed to be a battle between the Porsches and the Ferraris.
For 1962, Scuderia Ferrari raced their Dino 246 SP (No.152), driven by Willy Mairesse, Olivier Gendebien and Ricardo Rodriguez, and their Dino 196 SP (No.120), raced Giancarlo Baghetti and Lorenzo Bandini.

Ferrari No.152 finished the 10 laps in first place, taking it in 7hrs2mins56secs, followed by No.120 12 minutes later in second place.
Scuderia Ferrari would have to wait till 1965 to get those winner’s laurels back.
