Ferrari 'not a works team' - FIAT
'Not a Euro' from parent company

(GMM) Ferrari is not a works formula one team that is backed by a manufacturer, according to the marque's president, Luca di Montezemolo.

Although Italian carmaker Fiat is commonly viewed as Ferrari's 'parent company', and Montezemolo is also in charge of the Turin-based manufacturer, he said the link between the pair should end there.

''I would like to get this straight,'' said the Italian. ''Fiat does not give Ferrari a single euro for formula one. All activities for racing depend on Ferrari's resources alone.

''We are a private team.''
