Luigi Chinetti
Luigi Chinetti was an Italian-American racing driver and team owner, best known for founding the North American Racing Team (NART). He played a crucial role in Ferrari's success in the United States, especially during the 1964 season when Ferrari's cars adopted blue and white colors in a dramatic statement against the Italian racing authorities, a move that Chinetti supported as a means to enhance Ferrari's presence in North America.
