Vigna highlighted that despite facing limited supply, Ferrari is successfully expanding its customer base, particularly among younger and newer clients. The company has seen consistent growth in its client numbers for ten consecutive quarters, with 30% of its new clients being under the age of 40. He emphasized that acquiring a Ferrari should never be an easy or quick process because it represents the ultimate aspirational car. Vigna stressed that the experience of owning a Ferrari begins from the moment one first encounters the brand, and it's not something easily obtained. Regarding Ferrari's performance in Formula 1 racing, Vigna acknowledged the challenges the team has faced in recent years, with Ferrari currently in fourth place in the F1 team standings behind Red Bull, Mercedes, and Aston Martin. He emphasized that racing is in Ferrari's DNA, and the primary focus is on improving the car's performance, quoting Enzo Ferrari's legacy of pursuing progress. When asked about the possibility of Lewis Hamilton, the renowned Mercedes Formula 1 driver, joining Ferrari, Vigna emphasized their current drivers, Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz Jr., who are performing exceptionally. He stated that the main priority for Ferrari is to enhance the car's competitiveness.

The Lewis Hamilton move to Scuderia Ferrari will be analyzed from many different angels. Mercedes-AMG Petronas and Scuderia Ferrari represent two giants in Formula 1, but is there any differences between the two when we compare the partnership networks?   Of course, Scuderia Ferrari is the number one Italian team 🇮🇹 on the Formula 1 grid, also when we look at the number of Italian partners.   Both have almost the same number of partners from the USA.   What about Germany 🇩🇪 and Mercedes?   Mercedes had five (5) German partners 2023. A number that in my opinion could be higher.   Scuderia Ferrari is the more consumer-oriented team (hotels, airlines etc.. included). Mercedes-Benz Group is a huge company compared to Ferrari N.V.   Mercedes sold 2,491,600 vehicles 2023. Ferrari sold 13,663 vehicles 2023 When Market Cap is compared the difference is small. Ferrari Market Cap: 70,2 billion Mercedes Market Cap: 75,6 billion

A quick escape not related to work :) 🏁 In a world where sports capture our hearts and minds, there's something truly exceptional about the world of racing and its fearless drivers. 🏎️💨 While football dominates headlines and hearts globally, let's take a moment to appreciate the sheer precision, skill, and adrenaline rush that racing brings. From Formula 1, rally racing to Le Mans, every twist and turn on the track demands split-second decisions and nerves of steel. Unlike football, where matches can sway on a single goal, racing unfolds in a heart-pounding battle against time and competitors. The technology, strategy, and physical endurance required to maneuver at high speeds are second to none. It's a sport where milliseconds matter, and where the mastery of a machine is as critical as the prowess of the driver. So here's to the daring drivers who push the limits, challenge physics, and embrace danger with every turn. Their courage and commitment make racing the pinnacle of sports—where victory isn't just about skill, but a testament to human ingenuity and the pursuit of perfection. Le Mans isn't just another race; it's a 24-hour marathon of skill, strategy, and sheer determination. Imagine hurtling through the night at speeds surpassing 200 mph, navigating a challenging track with relentless precision, and battling fatigue as much as competitors. This isn't just about who's the fastest; it's about who can endure, adapt, and innovate under extreme conditions. Unlike the quick bursts of excitement in other sports, Le Mans demands an unwavering focus and a symbiotic relationship between man and machine. Drivers form a bond with their cars that goes beyond mere control—it's a dance of intuition and trust, where every gear shift, every pit stop, and every calculated risk can make or break the race. Moreover, the teamwork in Le Mans is unparalleled. It's not just about the driver's prowess; it's about the synchronization of mechanics, engineers, and strategists working seamlessly to maximize performance and efficiency. Each member of the team plays a crucial role in the pursuit of victory, making Le Mans a true test of collective brilliance. And let's not forget the heritage. Le Mans isn't just a race; it's a saga of legends, from the iconic cars that have graced its tarmac to the heroes who've etched their names in its history. It's a celebration of innovation and courage, where manufacturers push the boundaries of automotive technology to create machines that redefine what's possible on the track. So, next time you watch the sun set over the Circuit de la Sarthe, remember that Le Mans isn't just a race—it's an epic journey of human spirit and engineering marvel. It embodies the relentless pursuit of excellence and the enduring thrill of competition that makes it truly the pinnacle of sports. 🏎️💨🌟 Forza Scuderia Ferrari !!
