Speaking of the Ferrari badge: it's one of the most iconic car brand logos in the world. But how did Enzo come up with it?

Answer It was inspired by a WWI fighter pilot

The prancing horse - or cavallino rampante in Italian - was inspired by the famed Italian WWI fighter pilot Francesco Baracca, who used to paint a similar prancing stallion on the side of his plane. The yellow background, on the other hand, is the official color of Modena.
