Ferrari’s Technological Innovations Part 7: The Terrible Joys of Enzo and the Sigma GP for Safety

Perhaps not everyone knows that Enzo Ferrari loved writing and did so with great communicative skill. His books Piloti che gente and Le mie gioie terribili (My Terrible Joys) are essential documents for understanding him. These books, transcending the emotional impact of current events, serve as permanent testimonies of experiences that, in Enzo Ferrari's case, often included the tragic loss of those he chose to drive his cars. It’s no surprise that he, along with many on his staff, including his son Piero, contributed significantly to a project proposed by the Swiss magazine Automobil Revue for the creation of a Formula 1 concept car designed with safety in mind.
