Ferrari president, Luca Montezemolo told reporters in Rome on Friday that the Italian Formula One team will build a new ride for the Pope. The new popemobile, to be built in honor of John Paul II's 26th anniversary as pontiff, will be based on a downscaled model of the championship-winning Formula One F2004 car. Whether or not the Vatican has scheduled track time at Monza is still unknown.
