Champions and drivers past, present and future on stage in the Piazza Duomo to celebrate 90 Italian GPs, its new contract to 2024 and 90 years since the Maranello team was established
Ferrari past, present and future was on parade in a completely packed out Piazza Duomo, for the “90 Years of Emotion” event, organised by the ACI (Italian Automobile Club) to celebrate the 90th edition of the Italian Grand Prix, with Scuderia Ferrari as the guest of honour, in the year it celebrates its 90th anniversary. The team’s amazing history has made it one of the principal ambassadors of motorsport around the world.
There was plenty going on, with special guests, a static car display and a parade, as well as drivers from the glorious past to the current line-up of Sebastian Vettel and Charles Leclerc, the latter having just won last Sunday’s Belgian Grand Prix at Spa-Francorchamps. Also present were the youngsters from the Ferrari Driver Academy.
Representing the ACI was its president, Angelo Sticchi Damiani, who has worked on promoting motor sport in Italy for many years, while AC Milano.
After the special event, Sebastian Vettel, Charles Leclerc and Team Principal Mattia Binotto went to the Ferrari Store for one more meeting with the fans.
Asked whether he will be in Formula One in five years’ time, the German driver replied: “I don’t know. I’m liking it now. But in the future I don’t know. Now I only think of Saturday and Sunday.”
But is winning the title with Scuderia Ferrari an obsession for Sebastian Vettel? – “I would just like to win for little Seb who as a child supported the Schumacher-led Ferrari. As a child I used to follow Michael with the red car. Now that I am driving the red car, it is a dream coming true. It’s difficult to find words, a way to describe Ferrari. It’s a religion.” – Sebastian said in front the fans at the Ferrari Store.
