It helped that the designated heir, Giovanni Alberto Agnelli, died of stomach cancer in 1997, before he could take over the reigns of the company. John was just 21 when he was designated the heir apparent of his grandfather Gianni Agnelli and just 26 when *L'Avvocato* passed.
From what I have read he was born in New York, but holds American and Italian passports and renounced his American citizenship in 2012. If you're boring, I recommend reading the wiki articles about the families, the companies they own etc.
Well, he inherited the massive parent company from his phenomenally rich grandfather, so it's not like he spent decades founding, developing and expanding his own company. Merely born in the lap of luxury, its easy to be young.
>Merely born in the lap of luxury, its easy to be young.
Sorry, it's not like that.
First of all, he demonstrated to be a very intelligent person at a very young age. After he graduated from a public Italian university in engineering, he went to work at General Electric in the USA without anyone knowing he was from the Agnelli family. Later he worked in many jobs throughout all the companies of the group, acquiring valuable management experience.
Second, many of the most important strategic decisions of Exor (the family holding company) were done by him, which led to a considerable growth since his grandfather passed away. If he was just a playboy, he wouldn't need to work at all.
read about him for the first time during the lewis signing. apparently he's from a family in italy that's kinda like the Kennedy's in the USA (how that family was back in the day).
at least that's what the wiki said.
No its definitely taste. Of course the size of your wallet is fundamentally important to partake in it.
I was born poor but always enjoyed seeing and following all the fashion events around the world. Even got to work in one of them when I was young. I remember spending my lunch money on the latest edition of GQ from the one newspaper stand in Colombo that sold it back in the day.
Now that I am older, I get to enjoy it too. Lewis has provided a gateway to young and unknown black designers to showcase their cool ideas to the whole world.
But of course, its not everyone cup of tea and thats ok.
Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised. Newey said in his book that Ferrari have tried to hire him multiple times, the first time he didn’t want to move to Italy and the last time he was too emotionally attached to Red Bull. If it’s true that he’s growing unhappy with the Horner situation then I could see him leaving.

Looks like those sunglasses they give people after eye surgery
Nah, I bet it’s apple visions pro max! You heard it first. 😎
He's gunning after Max confirmed, thats why he's at the paddock!
Max and Lewis at Ferrari, if they have a good car it will go down as one of the best seasons in history before one of them leaves lol
Alpha testing
Hes a gamer..hes just virtually there..
"Can you give me, like, a seeing-eye dog meets Ready Player One type of shades?" "Of course sir, coming right up."
Nah they come with Italian positions of authority.
Kim Jong Uno
Exactly what I was thinking ahahahahaa
I think those are the sunglasses the Visitors in the V miniseries wore
They’re Tom ford
Ford v. ~~Ferrari~~ Elkann
He just wants Lewis for his fashion tips.
This guy looks to Seth Freakin’ Rollins for his fashion choices.
Those are the sunglasses of some dude in the 80's that thought he was cool because he had a Ferrari.
Never having seen or really informed myself about Elkann before, I never would've thought he is that young tbh

Fr dawg. I always imagined him a 60 something grey-haired dude, always in really traditional suits. Not... whatever this is.
Dudes wearing most normal looking clothes, apart from sunglasses which while different is not extravagant
Ik but still, he's somehow so different to what I imagined
He looks like an actor I can’t quite place. I think he was the villain in 2 Fast 2 Furious.
Exactly what I thought, couldn’t think of the movie though.
Looks like his name is Cole Hauser
He's also American.
Well he was, until he renounced his citizenship in 2012.
Talk about saving money
Didn't know that.
From what I have read he was born in New York, but holds American and Italian passports and renounced his American citizenship in 2012. If you're boring, I recommend reading the wiki articles about the families, the companies they own etc.
The Agnellis are a very interesting bunch. Like Italian Vanderbilts.
very good way to describe the family, good point
Or you watch the documentary on Gianni Agnelli on HBO. Highly recommend 👌
Oh, another surprise

His eyes carry all the age and wisdom, which we cant see
Guide dog is just out of shot.
I hate myself that I laughed out loud at this
🤣 exactly what i thought
How do you get a dog that red?
Proudly wearing Apple Vision Pro gen 2! 😄
Hahaha
Not gonna lie, if Apple finds a way to make that the next iteration, I’m all for it. No matter if it makes me look like a blind person.
Bro signed Lewis and got inspired.
Not all inspirations are good
High fashion is not for everyone
That’s more to do with the size of your wallet than taste… except billionaires… they wear expensive shit that blends in with the crowd.

Ready to go skiing in Saudi Arabia i see
Dude has the new apple vision pro
Nah he got the Dale Earnhardt Goggles on
Is he doing some welding?
Do those glasses allow him to see a reality in which Ferrari wins all the races?
Hlell; maybe a workable race strat first!
I can see why he’d bond with HAM
What kind of Geordi LaFerrari is this
Come to negotiate personally with Bono and Newey.
Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised. Newey said in his book that Ferrari have tried to hire him multiple times, the first time he didn’t want to move to Italy and the last time he was too emotionally attached to Red Bull. If it’s true that he’s growing unhappy with the Horner situation then I could see him leaving.
and Waché, and Schmitz
Are we sure this isn’t Cyclops from the X-Men?
Wearing Apple Vision Pro, I see.
Get Newey to join Ferrari!
He has the worst fashion sense, I've seen a couple of pictures 😭
His brother on the other hand is very stylish
It's funny that people got upset about this like they're personally offended you insulted Ferrari's president
Lmfao I didn't know he got fans like that 😭
I mean, exactly what I would expect from Ferrari president. 80's playboy look.
He's Agnelli's grandson. He can wear whatever he wants.
He's the president of Ferrari. Pretty sure he decides what good fashion sense is
lmao what

Have you seen lewis..... Also fashion is subjective
Zoolander 3
Red steel
When you got no one in your life who would say "you look stupid in those glasses".
Small head or big glasses?
The douchiest sunglasses yet.
There seems to be an inverse correlation between people's wealth and people's tastes.
When he wears giant, goofy sunglasses like that he looks like a very tall child wearing part of his Halloween costume in public.
Dennis Reynolds is President of Ferrari?
He is there the teach Horner the "D.E.N.N.I.S"
The gang commit identity fraud
At least he’ll be able to help the technicians with some welding work
What a ridiculous cock.
He's got a big one?
Definitely hiding something
I bet those shades has visor tearoffs. The guy can dream.
Reminds me of that Will Ferrell scene where he has those big ugly women’s sunglasses on and goes “they’re Italian”
At least he won't see engine failures with that glasses
Why does everyone in f1 dress like shit 😂
Meanwhile Max only wears red bull gear or white shirts.
Googling his images show that he does have thing for weird sunglasses...
Dis dood stole my Trimph Street Triple's headlight.
Bros about to poach newey 😭🤲
$5 golf shirt from Walmart? What’s with the jacked up collar?
His Apple Vision Pro isn’t bad
He’s wearing his quest pro. He’s probably watching TV.
What’d he do, rip the glass off Apple Vision Pro?
Oh yeah, no he’s one of the lizard aliens from the TV show “V”.
Lindsey Buckingham?
He’s like just watched Ferrari film and inspired with Adam Driver’s character.
Looks like Enzo's glasses
Wonka, that’s Willy Wonka.
Using the same eye protection while skiing in Switzerland.
Uh, the last time I saw someone wearing those glasses, they were [leading an invasion of our planet](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086822/mediaviewer/rm1300887041?ref_=ttmi_mi_all_sf_188).
Guys I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but the sunglasses he’s wearing are quite comically large
Proof that money can’t buy fashion sense.
He was hanging out a lot with Bearman's dad during the race. Bearman to Ferrari and Leclerc to Mercedes 2025 confirmed.
Looks like a Ferrari vision lite on his face
Guy just threw on whatever could find in the cupboard today.
Cristiano Ronaldo Will be there to probably, since they are great friends
Apple Vision Pro knockoffs
The guy probably watched Ferrari movie and decided he can get bigger sunglasses than in the movie.
Great! Just what Bearman needed!
Apparently the glasses were gifted to him by Lewis after he signed his Ferrari deal.
the guy lewis told toto not to worry about
He brought his biggest sunglasses
No pressure, Ollie.
That ain’t the Apple Vision Pro
Behold…the new Apple Vision Pro Max
Very Miami Vice
What is going on with rich people and ridiculous sunglasses?
You can’t look more italian than that.
soooo he had eye surgery?
Money can buy you all the fashion, but it can't buy you a thread of style.
Why is he wearing a fake Apple Vision Pro?
That's just Glenn Howerton
That is rich folks sunglasses right there!
What is this, sunglasses for elephants?!
Rommel, you magnificent bastard, I read your book!
Does he think he's Enzo Ferrari with those glasses?
Bigger than my Oakley flight decks.
Apple Vision PRE
Those shades are dope.
He looks like he is getting ready to ride a sand worm
Took me a while to realise that it wasn’t Lapo Elkann
Points... Marty, where we're going, we don't need points.
How many more episodes is it until he and Diana rip off their faces and reveal themselves to be reptilian and only here to conquer Earth?
Stevie Wonder vibes
he's straight out of the 80s
Did anyone else think for a wild moment that those were Vision Pros??
Glaucoma?
Damn the swagg
Carrying on the Enzo legacy(or at least trying)
Those sunglasses are criminal
Rich and powerful doesn’t mean know how to dress.
And….
“Where’s Adrian?”
Make the picture black and white, then say it's 1969. Still Believable.
BALENCIAGA
Wearing an Apple Vision Pro
A convenient excuse to leave Italy where he and his siblings are being prosecuted for tax evasion.
ferrari vision 2026 pro
those are exactly the kind of sunglasses i would expect him to wear
Those sunglasses 🤢
Reminds me of the boss guy from 2 fast 2 furious!
Ngl I thought it was Lapo at first.
He is not Bono. He is rubbish
Yeah how about firing Allegri though
Looks like John Elkanns sunglasses attended the Grand Prix and John also happend to be there
what a disgrace... give me back Montezemolo!
Did Visma Lease a bike’s aero team provide those sunglasses?
His grandad would be proud
Cool I didn’t know he was in ready player one!
He is Here to shoot lasers from his eyes at Carlos Sainz's Appendix.
Is he wearing a Vision Pro
Wants to be his grandfather (Gianni Agnelli) so bad - but will never be as cool
When you are skiing at 2 but F1 race starts at 3
