Ferrari will be floated on the stock exchange next year.
The Maranello outfit - the F1 team and the producer of exclusive sports cars - will be spun off from the Fiat Chrysler parent group, with 10 per cent of the shares to be up for grabs to the public on a US and possibly a European stock market.
"Coupled with the recent listing of (Fiat Chrysler) shares on the NYSE, the separation of Ferrari will preserve the cherished Italian heritage and unique position of the Ferrari business," confirmed chairman John Elkann.
