Ferrari - All You Need To Know About The Logo




Ferrari has one of the most recognisable logos in the automobile industry.

The Italian flag sits right at the top of the logo while below it is yellow shield, signifying the colour of Modena.

The logo also bears the initials ‘SF’ which translate to Scuderia Ferrari or Team Ferrari, and the very well-known black prancing horse.

Interestingly, the horse was chosen by Enzo Ferrari because of the late son (Francesco Baracca) of a count he had met.

Baracca was fighter ace in the First World War and had a horse painted on the fuselage of his fighter aeroplane.

Baracca’s mother had advised Enzo Ferrari to use the horse for his cars, as it would bring good luck.

The horse is said to have been taken from a German Pilot, shot down by Baracca, from Stuttgart
