F1 News: Ferrari Makes Huge Donation To Support Emilia Romagna Flooding Disaster

Ferrari has made a huge donation to Emilia Romagna aid.

In response to the devastating floods that have afflicted the Emilia Romagna region, Ferrari has announced a substantial donation of €1 million. The funds will be directed towards the Emilia Romagna Region's Agency for Territorial Safety and Civil Protection to assist in the recovery efforts.

The adverse weather conditions have tragically resulted in the loss of nine lives and forced thousands of residents to evacuate their homes. With the safety and well-being of the local population as the primary concern, Formula 1 took the decision to cancel the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, thus relieving the strain on local authorities.

As the pack-up process is under way at the Imola track, Ferrari is taking immediate action to support the region. Ferrari CEO Benedetto Vigna expressed the company's dedication by stating: 

“In times of difficulty, Ferrari has always stood by its community.

“We wanted to provide a concrete and immediate response to the most urgent needs of the population of Emilia-Romagna, which has been tried by a serious environmental disaster.

“With the coordination of the local authorities, to whom our heartfelt thanks go for their tireless work, this aid will bring comfort and a tangible sign of the solidarity of the entire Ferrari family.”

With the coordination of local authorities, Ferrari's generous donation aims to bring comfort and serve as a tangible manifestation of solidarity from the entire Ferrari family. The contribution will contribute to the ongoing relief efforts and aid those affected by the floods in Emilia Romagna.

In addition to Ferrari's substantial donation, various other fundraisers and initiatives have been established to extend support to the people of the region. The collective efforts of individuals, organisations, and communities will play a crucial role in assisting the affected population and facilitating the recovery process.
