    Probably right, but I'd put Monteverdi right up there with them.

    Which is probably why he could not get along with Ferrari: two strong opinionated personalities, with one of them having his name on the building.

    But Bizzarrini did get along with Ferrari, he regretted leaving. The walk-out was due to Ferrari's wife and her involvement in the company.

    IMO Ferrari was one of the few men Bizzarrini could work with. Bizzarrini respected Ferrari and understood his powerful personality.
