A brief history… 1918, Turin, Italy. Enzo Ferrari was a young car and racing enthusiast. At 20 years old, he was a seasoned driver who, with enthusiasm and dedication, managed to advance in the world of motor racing. The first car he drove, which took him to the podium in the Targa Fiorio (1920), was an Alfa Romeo. From then on, he worked for 20 years first as a driver, and then as part of the team of this brand. But Enzo began to have an obsession. He wanted to build his own cars and beat Alfa. In 1945, the first car with his name came out, from a town in Italy called Maranello. 5 years later, with the arrival of Formula 1, Ferrari began to make people talk about it all over the world thanks to its triumphs and its ultra-fast engines. What Enzo Ferrari did not imagine would be the fame that one of his models, the Ferrari F40, would acquire. An exclusive, lightweight, and extremely fast car that would be the star of a TV show. ????
