Scuderia Ferrari HP continues to secure new sponsorships and capital: IBM has also joined the ranks of the Prancing Horse
It’s a year of changes, at least in terms of partnerships, for Scuderia Ferrari: after announcing the agreement with HP as title sponsor, followed by Unicredit (replacing Santander, which has become a sponsor of Formula 1), the Maranello team has now closed a new deal with IBM, a global leader in digital consulting.
