The Ferrari 625 TF model competition was the first Ferrari to use a four-cylinder engine. This small sports car weighing just 730 kg, thanks to its short tubular chassis and light engine. Its production was only three units during 1953.
In June 1953, made its debut two new Ferrari car TF 625 and 735 S. The 735 S piloted by Alberto Ascari and TF 625, piloted by Mike Hawthorn.
Both had very good performance. Ascari led much of the competition with its 735 S until it crashed leaving no chance to stay in the competition while the Ferrari 625 TF lost much ground in the long straights compared to its rivals, Hawthorn still managed to finish the race in a well deserved fourth place.
