The Ferrari logo is regarded as one of the most emblematic symbols in the world of motorsport, not just a brand, but also a symbol of speed, power and the history of motor racing. The Ferrari logo features a black horse rising into the air with a yellow background and the colours of the Italian flag hanging above it, flanked by the three letters "S F", which stands for "Scuderia Ferrari", or Ferrari Racing Team.
The image of the black steed was suggested by an Italian flying hero of the First World War, Francisco Baraka. On the plane where Baraka fights, a black horse with wings spread and hooves raised is depicted, which is also a symbol of his luck in winning the air battle. After Baraka's tragic death, his parents suggested that Enzo Ferrari use the horse as a symbol of racing in the hope of bringing him good luck. Enzo Ferrari accepted the suggestion, but changed the colour of the horse from red to black and the background to yellow, which is said to be the colour of his hometown of Modena.
The horses in the Ferrari logo are synonymous with power, energy and a love for racing. Black symbolizes the mourning of the deceased hero and the remembrance of his courage. The yellow background represents the enthusiasm and glory of the hometown. The horse raced with the Scuderia Ferrari and became the pride of the Morgan. Every time a Ferrari car takes to the field, the horse on the logo shows the world Ferrari's relentless pursuit of speed and passion.
The Ferrari logo is not only a brand trademark, but also a respect for history, a tradition and a vision for the future. Everyone who sees the Ferrari logo can feel the competitive spirit and willpower flowing behind it. Whether it's a luxury sports car on the road or a racing car on the track, the Ferrari logo is synonymous with speed and furious.
