Celebrating the Matriarch of the Ferrari legacy (Laura Ferrari)

On Ferrari Friday's, William Ross from the Exotic Car Marketplace will be discussing all things Ferrari and interviewing people that live and breathe the Ferrari brand. Topics range from road cars to racing; drivers to owners, as well as auctions, private sales and trends in the collector market.

In this episode William delves into the overlooked life and contributions of Laura Ferrari, Enzo Ferrari's wife, in celebration of Women's History Month. He covers various aspects of her life including her role in Enzo life, their complex relationship, her unseen influence on Ferrari's financial stability, and the challenges she faced in a male-dominated era. William highlights Laura's crucial involvement in maintaining and managing Ferrari's finances, which arguably saved the company from financial ruin. He also touches upon personal anecdotes, the impact of their son Dino's illness, and the controversial dynamics involving Enzo's mistress, Lina Lardi. He also emphasizes the need for more recognition of Laura Ferrari's significant, yet underappreciated contributions to the legendary car brand.
