We are lucky to be in California and a short drive from the annual Pebble Beach Concours d' Elegance and "Monterey Car Week." I played hooky yesterday to attend an event honoring Maurizio Corbi, the award-winning designer for Ghia, Bertone and Pininfarina. Corbi was instrumental in the designs of the Ferrari F456, F50, F355, and 550 Maranello. See more about Maurizio at

2022 marks the Ferrari Club of America's 60th anniversary. So there were a LOT of Ferraris and famous Ferrari people in town for the festivities.
