Dear Francesco Bianchi, President of Ferrari Far & Middle East, dear Donato Romaniello, President of Ferrari Japan, distinguished guests, good evening and welcome to the Italian Embassy for this exclusive event!
I am very honored and exited to host tonight’s event, a celebration of an Italian company that is far more than a car manufacturer. Ferrari is a legend, one of the most famous and admired brands in the world.
Tonight, we are going to unveil the new Ferrari F80, the most powerful road car Ferrari has ever made, and I am particularly happy to celebrate this exceptional event in front of such an extraordinary audience of passionate ferraristi – a community I am proud to be part of!
Ferrari are the most beautiful and the most fascinating cars everybody knows, creations that reflect unmatched craftsmanship, relentless innovation and the perfect blend of passion, creativity and engineering precision.
Any Ferrari car is, without doubts, the purest expression of the Made in Italy and it is no surprise that Japan, with its refined taste and deep appreciation for technology, quality and beautiful design, holds a special place in Ferrari’s history.
Not only the Japanese market is one of the top destinations for Ferrari cars, but when it comes to sports, the Scuderia has achieved unforgettable victories at Suzuka. Let me therefore closing by wishing Ferrari continuous success in Japan and all the best to Scuderia Ferrari Team ahead of the upcoming Japanese Grand Prix.
Ganbatte kudasai! Forza Ferrari!
