Ferrari is an Italian car brand based in Maranello, Italy. The company was founded in 1929 as a racing team (Scuderia Ferrari) by Enzo Ferrari. It was not until 1947 that the company switched to the production of legal street cars under the name Ferrari S.p.A. Since its inception, the company has been mentioned in the same breath as Formula 1, in which many successes have already been achieved.
Enzo Ferrari started in 1923 as a (test) driver at Alfa Romeo, where he soon became responsible for the entire team. In 1929 he founded the Scuderia Ferrari, which functioned as the racing stable of Alfa Romeo. Until 1938 he achieved many victories with the Alfa Romeo cars. In 1939, however, the roads of Alfa Romeo and Ferrari separated. Enzo left Alfa Romeo and they agreed that the name "Ferrari" would no longer be associated with racing or racing cars for 4 years. Enzo therefore founded Auto Avio Costruzioni, which resulted in Auto Avio tipo 815. In 1943 the factory moved from Modena to Maranello, where it can still be found today. In 1945 they finally started designing what was to become the first real Ferrari car, and on March 2, 1947 it was ready: the Ferrari 125 S.
