An exhibition honoring the epic Ferrari and Maserati battles opened on October 15th, 2012 at the Museo Casa Enzo Ferrari in Modena, Italy. At the inaugural “The Great Challenges-Ferrari and Maserati” display, visitors will get to see nineteen historic race cars that were selected to represent the two manufacturers and their rich racing history.

The first challenges between the Italian manufacturers took place in 1926, when the Alfa Romeo racing team, managed by Enzo Ferrari, and Maserati, which was founded a few years earlier in Bologna, faced each other for the first time on the track. After Adolfo Orsi took over Maserati in 1937, and transferred its location to Modena, where Ferrari was also located, the locale became the epicenter of the duel between the two makes.
