    Like many people, I appreciate Ilias's photographs on Instagram, where we discover numerous and very interesting spots.

    I have just seen that this young man was attacked at the roundabout of Maranello in front of the factory by Franck Tournier.

    I find it lamentable to be so jealous and stupid as to hit a person and then pull out a knife.I hope the police will do their job and that this Franck Tournier will be banned from the ranks permanently.

    Maranello is a filth pit. Last time we went, my wife was robbed/assaulted by a violent north African immigrant. Stole bread/pastries/pocket change she had after exiting corner bakery. Swore I'd never go back again. So far I've kept my promise.

    Very sad and troubling. I haven’t been in Maranello since about 15 years. I guess it’s changed a lot

    Some of my Sister's ashes are spread there. It will ALWAYS be a very special place for me.

    We're going in October... I've never had any issues in the past. I actually like Maranello, its always seemed kind of sleepy to me.

    To ask for such a favour, she must have really appreciated Maranello. She was a fan of the brand?

    Me too, but if I were you, I would avoid the roundabout; a mentally ill person is free... :)

    I would not even think of going to the round about... just to watch cars leave the factory? ... not my gig. however I have crossed the road in the middle of Maranello roundabout ...and the constant traffic is like taking your life in your own hands.

    I've driven those roads a lot as well... its one round about after another...

    There is probably more to the story, but his seems plausible except leaving out what started it in the first place.

    She LOVED Ferrari's as much as I do. When she came to visit, it was not to see me, but to drive the Ferrari!!! I carry a picture of her sitting in my Ferrari that I keep in the car, so she is still going with me on my drives. Thank you very much for asking! Sincerely, Mel

    Your sister looks a great woman, I mean she knows what she want. A woman with character.

    The police would have cleaned up at the roundabout. They would have blocked access to avoid a more problematic incident. Honestly, I think they should look into the person responsible for these photos. In my opinion, someone with few scruples.
