COMING SOON!
For the first time in the history of Scuderia Ferrari, the name of the car that
Fernando Alonso and Kimi Raikkonen will drive as they aim for victory in this
year’s Formula 1 championship will be chosen by fans from around the world.
You can now vote for your favorite name by going to ferrari.com and the
Scuderia’s Twitter and Facebook pages. The choice can be made from these five
options:
F14 T, F14 Maranello, F14 Scuderia, F166 Turbo, or F616.
The name that gets the most votes will be revealed on January 24th, the day before
the first photos of the car are revealed, along with a series of multimedia tools that
will outline its main technical characteristics.
Not only can fans make their mark on the Scuderia’s 2014 adventure,
but again through the website and social media networks, they can
also put questions to Team Principal Stefano Domenicali and the
two race drivers, using the hashtags #askStefano, #askAlo, #Kimi.
The protagonists will answer the most interesting and stimulating questions in a video which will air on Saturday, January 25th.

Life on the Inside:

Over 5,300 college graduates from 23 different countries, from
Brazil to Australia, China to Germany, from the United States to
Great Britain, as well as Italy of course, have been trying to
demonstrate they have the F-Factor, which could make them special enough to be given the opportunity of expressing their talent
with a career at Ferrari, a company that symbolizes excellence.
After a rigorous selection process, it’s time for the key phase,
which comes to an end on January 22nd. Only 96 participants have
got through to the individual interviews, which take place online.
The interviews go over their formative years and academic achievements, but they are also aimed at singling out their ability to innovate and to resolve technical and managerial challenges, vital for

Forza Michael!
Over two hundred fans from Italian and French
Scuderia Ferrari Clubs converged on the
Grenoble University Hospital on January 3rd,
while many others, from Germany and Spain,
responded to the call from Ferrari, to pay a special tribute to Michael Schumacher on his forty
fifth birthday.
They travelled for many hours by car and coach,
six from northern Italy, in a gesture of support
for the Schumacher family and those close to the
German driver, to show how much he means to
the fans and to each and every one of them goes
the thanks of Ferrari.
The Ferrari Heart which was displayed in the hospital parking lot in the French city was held up by
the hands of those present but also metaphorically
by the strength of the millions of fans from around
the world who are even closer than ever to Michael,
as he fights the hardest challenge of his life.
