He also picked Benedetto Vigna, an electric components specialist from STMicroelectronics, to head Ferrari in 2021.<\/p>\n<p>While the board had initially leaned towards an external candidate, one of the people said the tariff turmoil and geopolitical tensions had reinforced the need to find a leader who knew the company thoroughly.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The two key conditions the board set were deep knowledge of the American market as well as the diplomatic skills needed to oversee 14 brands and navigate operations in France, Italy, Germany and the US. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/30beec73-fd30-4ced-a854-1a5ca186ff0d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Unlock the Editor\u2019s Digest for free Roula Khalaf, Editor of the FT, selects her favourite stories in this weekly newsletter.
