1949 was the first year, Luigi Chinetti driving the Barchetta. Here is a
great link that gives some good historical Le Mans info.
You need to learn how to use a search engine, my friend. This stuff is all
at your fingertips. Google found this for me in about three seconds. All I
typed in was "Le Mans"+"Ferrari"+"history".
Not ripping you, just a little enlightenment. It takes more time from your
quest when you have to ask other people to do stuff for you that you can
easily do yourself!

Oh; and they were quite successful that year; they won.
