This video goes far beyond a deep dive into Ferrari and Pininfarina history that's centered around our star car, a 2017 F12. That model was the last production Ferrari in the long line of Ferrari-Pininfarina cars, and here we take a deep dive into that lineage. We also compare Italy's "Silicon Valley of Speed" with the actual Silicon Valley found in the southern San Francisco Bay Area. But where this film truly makes an impact is our discussion of life-long relationships and valuable lessons learned from them. My lifelong friend Carl was the owner of the featured F12, and this video discusses our growing up in Silicon Valley, just as it and the Ferrari-Pininfarina relationship were also coming of age.
Besides Winston Goodfellow, his lifelong friend Carl Schmitt, and Carl's F12, the key people and cars, the photos and some of the segments are:
