A
new project begins; a great challenge that stems from Ferrari's racing DNA and
innovative drive.
The Prancing Horse is preparing to compete in the world of
sailing under the guidance of Team Principal and acclaimed navigator, Giovanni
Soldini. In addition to competing on tracks all over the world, Ferrari is now
embarking on this new venture to enhance its technological know how, in line
with the Company’s continuous will to progress.
This unique project will see the Maranello-based company utilise
cutting-edge technologies throughout the entire cycle, from conception and
engineering to realisation. The search for maximum performance at sea will
generate innovations and concrete solutions for sustainability that, in line
with Ferrari’s tradition, will be an important stimulus in the evolution of its
sports cars.
John
Elkann, Chairman of Ferrari, said: “We are about to
embark on an exciting journey that will expand our racing soul. With this new
competitive challenge, motivated by our innovative capacity and commitment to
sustainability, we will push beyond current boundaries. We are happy to be able
to count on Giovanni, who is extraordinary in terms of experience,
determination and team spirit.”
Giovanni
Soldini said: “I am thrilled to start this new
adventure with Ferrari. We are working on an important and cutting-edge project
with an amazing technological potential that brings together different worlds
and skills of the highest level. Working with an exceptional team in the
research and development of innovative solutions that are respectful of our
environment is a truly unique experience.”
