Ten years after its original publication in September 2016, Ferrari Rex continues to sell copies around the world, thanks to the many international editions published since then: British English, American English, Spanish, Mexican Spanish, French, German, Russian, Hungarian and Romanian. Plus the special editions.
And counting…
Luca Dal Monte's biography of Enzo Ferrari is the source material for a forthcoming drama limited series centred on the years 1956–1961, when Ferrari rebuilt his racing team from scratch after personal tragedy. Dal Monte serves as historical consultant on the production.
