PROFILE

FerrariThe name Ferrari has featured on the Formula 1 grid since the inception of the Championship in 1950. Now, in its 61st season, the team carries over a plethora of history as it attempts to capture the championship with Felipe Massa and the newly-signed Fernando Alonso.

Enzo Ferrari, a shrewd businessman, founded the Italian outfit in 1929 and his legacy still reverberates in the engines today. Undoubtedly, the team from Maranello is the most successful squad in F1 history. With numerous titles, both as a constructor and for its drivers, the Stefano Domenicali-led team will try to add another feather in its crown this year.

The 2009 season had proved to be a disaster for Ferrari as it managed only a solitary win during the entire year. The result was shocking for an outfit that dominated the first half of the decade with copious amounts of success and scenes of utter domination. From 2000 to 2004, Ferrari usurped all championships under the brilliant collaboration of Jean Todt, Ross Brawn and a certain German driver named Michael Schumacher.

In the latter half of the decade, the Prancing Horse has won just one Drivers’ and two Constructors’ titles, a performance that hardly justifies the Scuderia’s past. With the much sought after Spaniard in the Scuderia stable and the 2008 runner-up as his teammate, the scarlet team will look to regain its glorious status in this season.

This year, as the season progressed, Ferrari has found their feet and may take the championship fight to the wire with Red Bull and McLaren. A strong result is important for the outfit that has been dogged by race ‘manipulation’ claims and the team orders controversy this year.
