Product description
The history of Ferrari, told by the engineer Mauro Forghieri, protagonist of the most exciting period among those linked to the events of the Cavallino.
It starts from the unpublished “Characteristic note” of June 1960, a sort of “report card” (with evaluations in Intelligence, Attitudes, Discipline, Attachment to work, Culture), which concluded the three-month trial, up to the resignation of the same engineer on May 27, 1987, a year before the death of the great manufacturer from Maranello. These were the years of great growth for Ferrari, the challenge with Ford in endurance races, the legendary 312T brought to the highest level by Niki Lauda, the transition to turbo engines with Gilles Villeneuve. Many victories (54 world GPs and 11 world F.1 titles between “Drivers” and “Builders”), all with projects designed by engineer Forghieri, Ferrari’s “shadow man” and witness to everything that happened in the factory and on the fields of tender.
An authentic “Ferrari novel”, divided into 41 chapters, unique because it was dictated and authorized by the Great Engineer who sadly passed away on November 2, 2022.
