President, Professor Gerard Saillant.
The cars will
boast noteworthy drivers: Michael Schumacher will be at the
wheel of the car that took him to his seventh world title,
Ferrari Managing Director Jean Todt will be on board the
Enzo.
Former Ferrari driver Rene Arnoux will be behind the wheel
of the 575 Maranello and alongside him will be film director

Another former Ferrari driver, Patrick Tambay will drive the
612 Scaglietti, while Felipe Massa, the Scuderia’s test
driver in 2003, will take the controls of the Company’s new
8 cylinder car, the F430. |
