Di Montezemolo considering politics again

Luca di Montezemolo

Ferrari Chairman Luca di Montezemolo has again sparked rumors that he may soon switch to a career in politics, with the 63-year-old having also been connected with such a move in the past.

“In Italy we need to rediscover the culture of consensus, to rediscover a sense of community, not always everyone against each other," he is quoted as saying by Reuters.

“We need to carry out a series of fundamental reforms that are neither of the left or of the right, a reform of the state, a reform of tax laws and a pact for growth.

“Unfortunately many Italian politicians do not have a culture of competition – just take a look at the electoral law. If I, as a voter, cannot decide who to send to parliament because someone else (a political party leader) has to decide, that is the very opposite of competition."
