About the Porsche 804

The Porsche 804 was Porsche's purpose-built Formula One car for the 1962 season and remains one of the most historically significant single-seat racing cars in the company's history. Powered by an air-cooled flat-eight engine, the 804 reflected Porsche's commitment to lightweight engineering, precision, and technical refinement.

The car achieved its defining success at the 1962 French Grand Prix at Rouen-Les-Essarts, where Dan Gurney drove the Porsche 804 to victory. That win remains Porsche's only Formula One World Championship Grand Prix victory as a constructor.

Although Porsche's factory Formula One program was brief, the 804 secured a lasting place in racing history. Today, it remains an important symbol of Porsche's Grand Prix ambitions and one of the most celebrated cars associated with Dan Gurney's Formula One career.
