Interesting and weird facts, legends and stories in Ferrari's history

[Tifoso84]

The first interesting and weird mystery in Ferrari's history has got to do with a peculiar numbers game - Up until 2001 all Formula 1 WDC titles for Ferrari came in years ending with different numbers... 1961, 1952, 1953, 1964, 1975, 1956, 1977, 1958, 1979 and so it was only logical that the next WDC title would come in a year ending with 0. The 1980 season was a disaster - No title... in 1990 in Suzuka, Ayrton Senna did what he would surely call "an act of God", by ramming out Alain Prost - No title... and so finally in 2000 everything clicked right into place and Ferrari's driver was crowned F1 World Champion once again. And so it seems that after winning all the titles ending with consecutive year numbers had been achieved, the weird "curse" was finally broken and Scuderia Ferrari's drivers could win titles in any year regardless of any numbers.
Just a weird coincidence or something more, you decide

One interesting story in Enzo Ferrari's life is that in 1919, while driving through the mountains of Southern Italy to go to a race, Enzo Ferrari and a fellow race driver were trapped by a deep snow. And then a pack of wolves tried to attack them but Enzo scared them away by using his revolver that he kept with him at all times. In the end they even managed to make it to the race on time
