The car
Designed by Vittorio Jano, poached from Fiat by a young Alfa test driver named Enzo Ferrari, the P2 won on its debut in 1924 and took the inaugural World Manufacturers' Championship in 1925.
Alfa added a laurel wreath around its badge to mark the title. It is still there, a century later — one of the longest-running pieces of commemorative branding in the industry. Ferrari, meanwhile, went on to run Alfa's racing team before starting a company of his own.
