Just read this, seems like they're taking the piss out of Ford over the F150 name. Just had to quote the best bit of this:

"Therefore the name will now read as the Ferrari 150° Italia, which should make it clear even to the thickest of people that the name of the car is a tribute to the anniversary of the unification of our country."

Yeah its about as childish as Ferrari can be without Fred throwing his toys out of the pram, but they do kind of have a point, and its amused me a little bit

Occasionally one stumbles across quotes from this pathetic little Ferrari organ. As an organisation, Ferrari have a lot to be proud of, but their Cheap-shot Department is not one of them. Every article I have seen from it has diminished them. Maybe it's something they write up in their bunga-bunga room.

I suppose it's to be expected from a country that 151 years ago was a collection of city states.
