On 12 March 1947, Enzo Ferrari started up the Ferrari 125 S, the first car to bear his name. The Ferrari that crossed the Maranello gates in 1947 was more than a new car, it was a declaration of intent, and the beginning of a 75-year culture of excellence built on craftsmanship, dedication, tradition and innovation. It is a culture that has created a stream of automotive masterpieces, each destined to transcend time.Exactly 75 years to the day, Ferrari is celebrating its anniversary at the Enzo Ferrari Museum in Modena by opening the doors to Ferrari Classiche – a unique department that the public usually never sees. Set up in 2006, it offers owners an exclusive service designed to protect the priceless heritage that classic Ferraris represent.
Enzo Ferrari first opened his small factory in Maranello in 1947. In the early post-war years, the mass car market was just about to break wide open, but he made a deliberate decision to go against the grain, pouring his experience instead into his dream of building racing cars. He spared neither human nor financial capital to develop the 125 S, a car that was a manifesto not just for technological innovation but also Ferrari’s own racing ambitions, and laid the foundations for a long story of victories. Since then, a huge community of fans, clients and, of course, employees has developed around the Ferrari marque, all of whom are united by a shared sense of belonging and passion, spanning all ages and nationalities.
London (United Kingdom), Oct 20 (EFE / EPA) .- (CAMERA: Facundo Arrizabalaga) The London Design Museum will host until March 2021 the exhibition "Beazley Designs of the Year" ("Beazley Designs of the Year" in Spanish ).
The doors officially opened on the ‘ Ferrari at 24 Heures du Mans’ exhibition at the Ferrari Museum in Maranello after its inauguration on 15 January.Many special guests attended the event, including the President of the Automobile Club d’ Ouest (ACO) Pierre Fillon, and the CEO of the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) Gérard Neveu, Antonello Coletta, Head of Ferrari Attività Sportive GT and the official Ferrari Competizioni GT drivers who triumphed in the legendary French endurance race were also present. Alessandro Pier Guidi, James Calado and Daniel Serra, winners of the 24 Hours in 2019, enjoyed a reunion with their victorious LMGTE Pro class car and the trophy they held aloft on the world’s most famous podium, both on display in the ‘Victory Room’.
Following the great success of visitors and the enthusiastic response of the fans, the Ferrari Museum has extended until April 30 "Michael 50", the exhibition dedicated to Schumacher.The exhibition, opened last January 3 on the day of the 50th birthday of the champion, tells of his extraordinary career and his unparalleled record in the history of F1.The most important Ferrari single-seater among those driven by Schumacher in his eleven years with the Scuderia are reunited in the Hall of Victories: from the F310 of 1996, with which he won three GPs in his first season with the Prancing Horse, to the F399 that conquered the title Builders in 1999 opening an exceptional winning cycle. There is also the F1-2000 of the legendary "Red Dawn", with which Michael won the world title 21 years after Jody Scheckter at Suzuka. Also present were the F2002 and F2004, the record cars, and the 248 F1 of 2006, the car of its 72nd victory, the last one with Ferrari.The exhibition also reveals a lesser-known side of Schumacher, the developer of road cars. After leaving Formula 1, in fact, the Kerpen champion remained in Ferrari not only as a Scuderia consultant but also to contribute to the development of some road cars, including the 430 Scuderia of 2007 and the Ferrari California of 2008."Michael 50" is organized in collaboration with the Keep Fighting Foundation, and joins the other Ferrari Museum exhibitions: "Driven by Enzo" and "Passion and Legend".
