Summary
Alexander and his father, Percival, arrived in Maranello, Italy, the home of Ferrari. The sun shone brightly over the rolling hills, and the streets were alive with the hum of fast cars. Maranello was a place where dreams came true for anyone who loved cars, and it was even more magical for Alexander, who could fix any car he laid his eyes on. As they walked through the streets, Percival smiled proudly at his son. “Look, Alexander. This is where the most beautiful cars in the world are born.” They reached the Ferrari factory, a massive building with sleek lines and shiny windows that reflected the bright blue sky. Inside, Ferrari test drivers were zooming around the track in the brand-new La Ferrari, a car so fast and so stunning that Alexander couldn’t stop staring. “Papa, can we go for a ride?” Alexander asked, his eyes wide with wonder. Percival laughed. “We’ll save that for another time, my little mechanic. But who knows, maybe one day you’ll be fixing cars here.” They watched the La Ferrari speed by, its engine roaring like a lion. But just as they were about to leave for the hotel, something unexpected caught their attention—a 1966 Ferrari 250 GTO was parked on the side of the road, its shiny red paint glistening in the sunlight. “Look at that!” Alexander pointed excitedly. “It’s so beautiful.” But there was something wrong. The car wasn’t moving. The owner, a tall man in a dark suit, was pacing back and forth, looking frustrated. He kept tapping on the hood and talking into his phone in rapid Italian. It was clear the Ferrari was in trouble, and the man had no idea how to fix it.
