Ferrari was white/blue in the US GP and Mexico GP in 60's, but I don't
remember the exact year...

In 1964, John Surtees and L. Bandini drove blue and white Ferraris, #s 7 &8,
but not in all the races - usually the cars were red with blue wheels.
Surtees won the Championship that year.
in 1976, Jody Scheckter and Patrick Depalier drove 6 wheel Tyrrell P34s.
Scheckter drove the car to victory at the Swedish GP that year.
Any other questions?

I seem to remember that the year the Ferrari's were blue
was because Enzo was mad at the F1 officials in Paris and
the cars were entered at the Glen (anyway) by something
called Ferrari North America (of NYC, I think).

Mr. Ferrari wanted to race the 250 GT as a production car. The officials
at Monza pointed out that not enough of the cars had been produced to
classify the car as a production model. Enzo withdrew his entry and
proclamed that Team Ferrari would never race in Italy again and when Ferrari's
raced outside Italy they would never be red. So for the last 2 GP's in 1964
the Ferrari's were in the blue and white of NART. North American
Racing Team. Run by the US Ferrari importer and not as the offical
Team Ferrari. In 1965 a new "sports car" class was added to the FIA
classifications. The 250 LM (a 250 prtotype with a roof added) was
eligable for the class. Mr. Ferrari was happy and Ferrari's were red
again!
