Well Ferrari was a race team before it was ever a car manufacturer. Enzo is famous for saying that he didn't really give a shit about the road cars, they were just a way to finance the racing team. Doesn't get more serious than that.

That's a very reasoned argument.

If old man Enzo had his way, they never would have made road cars at all. He only made them to finance his team.

and

you're right. guess not enough.

But....

But then Ferrari's only point was to race, and those "pitiful" road cars were just funding Enzo's obsession on Ferrari racing.

Yup, Ferrari wouldn't exist at all without racing.

Guise....rly?

I think I'd flip three and one.
