Located across from Ferrari HQ in Maranello, Ristorante Cavallino began as a humble canteen in 1950. Today, it's a stylish tribute to Enzo Ferrari's legacy — reimagined by chef Massimo Bottura and designer India Mahdavi.
Cavallino is located in Maranello, between the Ferrari factory, the Gestione Sportiva racing department and the new flagship store. The restaurant, garden and open-air terrace are adorned with a collection of memorabilia and racing rarities from the company's archives, allowing the public a unique glimpse into the Ferrari legend.
Housed in an old farmhouse bought by Enzo Ferrari, together with the land around it that is now home to the Ferrari company (a symbol of Maranello and Italy around the world), Cavallino was originally the company canteen. It was then transformed into a sit and dine restaurant in 1950, and is now the setting for Massimo Bottura's creative cuisine, conjured up by the chef's pupil, Riccardo Forapani.
According to Tripadvisor, the eatery serves traditional regional dishes, such as the delicious tortellini del Tortellante, with interesting personalised twists, as evidenced by the Mòdna dessert, a Sacher cake made with sour cherries. The interesting wine list includes plenty of options by the glass, while the decor here has a pleasant vintage feel.
The main room is decorated with pixelated Prancing Horse-patterned wallpaper. The high ceiling arches offer perspective and depth, and the squared terracotta floor in shades of red and ivory is inspired by classic Italian trattoria tablecloths.

The warm, welcoming atmosphere is enhanced by oak-panelled walls, upholstered yellow leather benches, console furniture individualized with photographic collages of Ferrari engines, and natural linen tablecloths. The walls feature maxi-print images from the Scuderia's historic yearbooks, as well as the front wing of the car in which Charles Leclerc won the 2019 Italian Grand Prix.
Located between the main hall and the outdoor area, the Grill Room is a pleasant surprise within the warm surroundings of the restaurant. The wall features a system of grilles which allow guests to watch the preparation of dishes.
From the large arched windows, guests can admire the Mediterranean-inspired outdoor patio, dominated by a pergola. It is replete with trees, plants, flowers and aromatic herbs, and is vibrant with all the changes of the seasons.
There are also a couple private rooms located on the first floor, and dedicated to those wishing to dedicate themselves to the immersive experience celebrating the history of Ferrari. Both rooms are inspired by the heart and soul of Ferrari: racing and GT. From design sketches of the first Ferrari racecar to Ascari's historic winner's trophy from the 1952 Monza Grand Prix, you can find it all here.

F1: Norris wins rain-hit British GP thriller, cuts gap to Piastri in title race

SILVERSTONE: Lando Norris won a treacherous rain-hit British Grand Prix at Silverstone on Sunday from his McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri. Sauber's Nico Hulkenberg took third for the veteran German's first ever podium in 239 races. Briton Norris returned to a rapturous reception from his home fans as he moved to within eight points of Piastri in the drivers' standings. "It's beautiful, everything I ever dreamed of, this is everything I wanted to achieve, aside from winning the championship this is as good as it gets," beamed Norris. Piastri, who finished less than seven seconds behind Norris, threw away the win after the Australian was hit with a 10-second penalty for a safety car infringement. As last week's heatwave gave way to a more typical British summer's day -- spells of blue sky mixed with torrential showers -- drivers had to keep their wits about them with puddles forming on the track. And Norris emerged from the chaos all smiles as he added to his wins already this season in Austria, Monaco and Australia. Ferrari's Lewis Hamilton came in fourth ahead of Red Bull's Max Verstappen. Piastri fell foul of the stewards when braking heavily before the safety car peeled off, a decision that left Piastri feeling robbed. "I'm not going to say much, I don't want to get myself in trouble," he said in the post-race interview. "Apparently, you can't brake behind the safety car anymore," he added. For Hulkenberg, 37, this was a day to remember as he climbed the podium for the first time since joining the F1 grid way back in 2010. "Podium - P3 baby!" said his ecstatic race engineer on the team radio after he crossed the line. "I don't think I can comprehend what we've just done," replied the German. Pierre Gasly's Alpine took sixth, with Lance Stroll (Aston Martin), Alex Albon (Williams), Fernando Alonso in the other Aston and George Russell (Mercedes) rounding out the top 10.

F1 top 10 standings: Lando Norris claims 2025 British Grand Prix win, narrows Oscar Piastri's championship lead

Lando Norris showcased a remarkable performance at the 2025 British Grand Prix, navigating tricky wet-dry conditions to clinch a memorable win at Silverstone. The McLaren driver beat home teammate Oscar Piastri, who finished 6.812 seconds behind. This victory, Norris' latest triumph, has significantly closed the gap to championship leader Piastri in the drivers' F1 standings, setting up an intense battle for the title. The race began under dry skies, with Max Verstappen initially taking the lead. However, heavy rain soon arrived and the order was shaken. Piastri briefly surged ahead, but a Safety Car deployment neutralized his advantage. As conditions fluctuated, Norris took control and held his lead to the checkered flag in front of the home crowd. The race was packed with action, including a 10-second penalty for Piastri for slowing excessively during a Safety Car restart and a spin for Verstappen, which dropped the Red Bull driver down the order. Despite these setbacks, Verstappen recovered to fifth, while Lewis Hamilton, now racing for Ferrari, settled for fourth. Several drivers faced misfortune, with five retirements during the race. Franco Colapinto stalled in the pit lane, Liam Lawson crashed out on Lap 1, and Gabriel Bortoleto spun into the gravel. Isack Hadjar also suffered a heavy crash but was unharmed, and Kimi Antonelli retired after a challenging day for Mercedes. With the championship battle heating up, Lando Norris' Silverstone win has set the stage for a highly-anticipated second half of the 2025 F1 season. After the race, Piastri remains in the lead with 234 points, but Norris is now just eight points behind at 226. Verstappen holds third with 173 points, followed by Russell (147) and Leclerc (119). Hulkenberg's podium has boosted him to ninth in the standings with 37 points. Here's look at the to 10 standings. 1. Oscar Piastri (McLaren) – 234 points 2. Lando Norris (McLaren) – 226 points 3. Max Verstappen (Red Bull) – 173 points 4. George Russell (Mercedes) – 147 points 5. Charles Leclerc (Ferrari) – 119 points 6. Lewis Hamilton (Ferrari) – 103 points 7. Kimi Antonelli (Mercedes) – 63 points 8. Alex Albon (Williams) – 44 points 9. Nico Hulkenberg (Sauber) – 37 points 10. Lance Stroll (Aston Martin) – 24 points 6. Racing Bulls – 36 points 8. Aston Martin – 28 points
