Best Answer

The famous Ferrari logo with the 'prancing horse' symbol was originally the character of Count Francesco Baracca, a legendary "asso" (ace) of the Italian air force in the period of World War I. The designer of the Ferrari logo painted this icon on the side of his plane. It was later assumed after his death that the selection of the horse of the Ferrari logo on his planes was because of the fact that his noble family owned a large number of horses in their estates Lugo di Romagna.
