Ferrari has appointed former AC Milan commercial boss Lorenzo Giorgetti to the newly-created position of chief racing revenue officer at the Scuderia.

This week, Ferrari published its results for fiscal year 2022 that reflected an expanding demand for its luxury sportscars.
Total shipments of 13,221 units were up 18.5% compared to 2021, while net revenues of €5,095,000,000 were up 19.3% relative to the previous year, resulting in a net profit for 2022 of €939 million.
On the sporting front, including F1, Ferrari's revenues from 'sponsorship, commercial and brand' rose 11% last year to 479 million euros, an increase mainly attributable according to the company to "the better prior year Formula 1 ranking and the contribution from lifestyle activities, partially offset by lower sponsorship".
Ferrari - where Frédéric Vasseur has replaced Mattia Binotto at the helm of the Scuderia - will unveil its new SF-23 F1 charger, that will be raced once again this year by Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz, on February 14 in Maranello.
