\"1706199801_Ferrari_F100\"<\/a>\u00a0A captivating, very red, ‘form’. And a badge that communicates with abbreviated clarity: F100. The letter F stands for Fioravanti and 100 years have passed since the birth of Enzo Ferrari.
\n“My passion for Ferrari,” explains Leonardo Fioravanti, owner of Fioravanti srl. “is overwhelming. For 25 years, I lived and breathed Ferrari, designing so many models and developing a truly special relationship with the boss. He was all of those Ferraris. Something perhaps unique in the world”.<\/p>\n

Hence the idea of using a car – and more specifically, a very high performance Gran Turismo – to commemorate the man. A singular initiative within the broad spectrum of the centenary celebrations organised for this year, which has received ample consensus – from the top Ferrari people to begin with, but also from the visitors to the Turin show, where the F100 was previewed.<\/p>\n

“Some help,” says Fioravanti, “also came by chance: given the fondness and respect that bonds me to Maranello, I wanted to wait until the new range was complete before presenting a Ferrari study.<\/p>\n

And, as it happens, it has coincided with the centenary of the birth of Enzo Ferrari.” So lo and behold the F100: 4.4 metres long, 1.9 wide, 1.14 tall. Emotional, aggressive and also very innovative. As is well known, Fioravanti designs are not just for looking at, but require a deeper analysis aimed at revealing the technical content. Which is always substantial.<\/p>\n

The F100 puts aerodynamics into the foreground, setting itself the target of optimising the lift quotient (the Cl). Moreover, it actively seeks a relaxed and gratifying driving experience and introduces some interesting explorations into the world of componentry.<\/p>\n
