Jean Todt reviving Scuderia Ferrari in the late 90's & early 2000s. His challenge was to lead Ferrari back to success at a time when the team was experiencing some of the worst days in its history. The Scuderia had won no driver's championship since 1979.
In 1995, a pivotal moment unfolded in the world of Formula 1 as Jean Todt sent an invitation to the legendary Michael Schumacher to join the Scuderia. Fast forward to 1996, after clinching victory at the Spanish Grand Prix, Schumacher soared to triumph in both the Belgian and Italian Grand Prix, setting the stage for a remarkable era.
The new millennium marked a golden era for Ferrari, with Schumacher securing an unprecedented five consecutive world championships from 2000 to 2004, alongside an impressive six straight Constructors' Championships. This dominance stood as a historic milestone until Mercedes embarked on their own era of excellence from 2014 to 2020, shaping the dynamic landscape of Formula 1.

The Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale was undoubtedly one of the most beautiful cars of all time. Of course, this beauty was already recognised when the sports car was still new. However, due to the high price and the comparatively marvellous racing car technology, there were apparently still unused chassis lying around at Autodelta, which were sold to external coachbuilders. One platform, including functioning drive technology, went to Bertone, where a certain Marcello Gandini was already head designer at the time, aged just 30.
In contrast to the organically rounded 33 Stradale, he now wanted to create a futuristic sports car with a strictly geometric shape. In this way, the Carabo was created as a wedge-shaped concept study that could hardly have been more different from its technical basis. The Alfa Romeo Carabo celebrated its world premiere on the Bertone stand at the 1968 Paris Motor Show.
