Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Very Good Day

[George (ygpz4re]

Rob - that's awesome!  I met him briefly in Rome when I was over there for the '99 Ferrari Challenge finals.  He, Todt, and LdM were at the teams dinner, and I got to shake his hand, thank him for all of the great cars, and he signed one of the menu cards from that dinner for me (Todt and LdM signed it also!).

Yes, new high bar for "very good day", indeed!

[As a trivial aside, I can't help but wonder how many people he had to interact with coming into this country - customs, immigration, etc. - even realized who he was?]

Congrats!
