He is best known for winning the 1964 24 Hours of Le Mans with co-driver Nino Vaccarella, driving a Ferrari 275 P for Scuderia Ferrari.

Racing career

Guichet raced sports cars and rallied from 1948 through the late 1970s. He began his racing career as a self-funded independent driver. Following an appearance with Abarth at the 1960 24 Hours of Le Mans, he then competed at Le Mans for three years in a private Ferrari entry, a team he had been connect to since a hillclimb in 1956, and took overall podiums in both 1961 and 1962.[2] He then became a factory driver for Scuderia Ferrari in 1964 and competed with the team for three years, including for his overall win with Vaccarella in 1964, followed by an entry in 1967 for the Scuderia Filipinetti customer team.[3] During this time, he also joined Ferrari customer team NART for the 1967 24 Hours of Daytona, where he finished third.[4]

Guichet is also known as the first owner of 1963 Ferrari 250 GTO chassis number 5111GT, one of only 36 produced. He successfully raced this car, including an overall win of the 1963 Tour de France with co-driver José Behra.[5][6] Following Guichet's sale of the car in 1965 and multiple subsequent ownership changes, this car was sold privately in September 2013 for $52,000,000 USD. This broke the then-current record for world's most expensive car.[7]
