What does "Scuderia" mean?

A lot of people have asked us, 'What does Scuderia, or Scuderia Speed mean?' Well, we think we don't have to tell you what 'Speed' stands for. We're crazy for racing, acceleration and speed.

Translated from Italian, "Scuderia" roughly means team. "Squadra" is the Italian word for "team" so the translation is not quite correct, but that is the essential meaning. Therefore Scuderia Speed means "Team F1", Scuderia Ferrari means "Team Ferrari". More examples are: "Team Italia", "Team Minardi", etc.

"Scuderia Ferrari" literally means "Ferrari Stable". In keeping it with the prancing horse emblem; the name is figuratively translated as "Team Ferrari".

The term "Scuderia" is nowadays used as a description of a "sports team", or "car racing team". In the past it meant "stable for race horses".
