How the Ferrari Family Lost Control of the Prancing Horse

Episode 38 of Family Business Stories with Fexingo takes you inside the dramatic 1960s power struggle that saw Enzo Ferrari lose majority control of the company he founded. We trace how a racing obsession, a bitter strike, and a handshake deal with Fiat turned Ferrari from a family-held icon into a corporate jewel—and why Enzo kept a single share of voting stock until his death. Lucas and Luna unpack the 50-50 split gone wrong, the role of Ford's failed takeover bid, and the lessons for today's family businesses about capital versus control. #Ferrari #EnzoFerrari #Fiat #Ford #FamilyBusiness #Succession #Legacy #Control #VotingStock #Racing #Maranello #1960s #CorporateHistory #PrivateEquity #IPO #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #FamilyBusinessStories Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
