Overview

From the clang of a Modenese metal shop in 1898 to the carbon-fiber roar of a Le Mans hypercar, Enzo Ferrari: Passion, Power & Prancing Horses charts eight decades of audacity that warped the very shape of speed. This fact-driven narrative escorts readers through dusty Mille Miglia lanes, midnight gearbox autopsies, and hushed board-rooms where industrial titans bartered over a crimson badge. Each chapter pairs forensic engineering detail-boost maps, composite lay-ups, stopwatch deltas-with the human pyrotechnics of legends like Ascari, Villeneuve, and Schumacher. The result is a sweeping chronicle of how one relentless man turned a regional racing stable into a global aesthetic, rewiring technology, finance, and popular culture in the process. Far more than an automotive history, the book reveals Ferrari's aftershocks across aerospace composites, film iconography, and streaming-era fandom. Through first-hand accounts and newly compiled data tables, it exposes the psychology of controlled rivalry, the economics of artificial scarcity, and the sound-wave allure that still draws millions of tifosi to red lines on every continent. Whether you come for championship lap charts or for the myth that made a horse out-gallop its rider, this is the definitive, fact-only voyage into the engine room of twentieth-century ambition.
