Spending four days at Monza in a full immersion in the Ferrari world, is always an exciting experience, even if I have been following Ferrari events for many (too many!) years.
To be surrounded only by Ferrari’s cars, Ferrari’s people, Ferrari’s drivers is every time the realization of a dream.

Looking around in Monza circuit, my attention has not been concentrated only on cars, but also on details and oddities, that belong to the Ferrari world.
For instance, the activity of mechanics, sometimes compelled to really acrobatic work or to tiring nightly efforts to repair or rebuild racing cars, which turn in a light sleep in the pit lane.
And what about the micro car or micro bike used to go around the circuit?
Or about the notes on a Maserati’s bonnet to remember the set up for each circuit?
Enjoy.

We don't know why the camera is there, but the pilot of this 512 Ferrari will probably not have a chance to use it while on the track.
