  • The Prancing Horse’s mid-front-engined V12 cars have won the prestigious IF Design Gold Award
  • The award ceremony was held today in Berlin
  • The F80 also received the iF Design Award from the iF International Forum Design GmbH

Berlin, 28 April 2025 – The Ferrari 12Cilindri and the Ferrari 12Cilindri Spider are the only cars to have received one of the 75 prestigious Gold Awards at the 2025 iF Design Awards. The judges highlighted the “ingenious use of graphic elements that wrap the 3D surfaces” of the cars, as well as their “form that is both exciting and reassuring.”

Ferrari also collected an iF Design Award for the F80. These awards further underscore the relentless pursuit of the Ferrari Design Centre, led by Flavio Manzoni, to find cutting-edge design solutions that enhance the Prancing Horse’s models without ever compromising the absolute synergy between functionality and aesthetics.

The award ceremony for the 2025 edition of the iF Design Award, one of the most coveted design recognitions worldwide, was held today in Berlin. Founded in 1953 by iF International Forum Design GmbH, the competition sees judges assessing over 10,500 products and projects from around 70 nations.

The international judging panel praised the design, commenting “Ferrari is the quintessence of luxury. Ferraris have always represented the maximum expression of the automobile, and the 12Cilindri is no exception. This design hints at 1950s and ‘60s Ferraris yet is undeniably modern, from its cutting-edge aerodynamics to its ingenious use of graphical elements that wrap its 3D surfaces. Once again, Ferrari has magically succeeded in creating a form that is both thrilling and reassuring.“

South West homeowners face seven-day waits for urgent repairs as tradie shortages continue to bite Fix Radio analysis shows the South West is among the slowest regions for urgent fixes, while Plymouth records one of the longest city-level waits in the UK The South West records an average 7-day wait for an urgent tradie fix. Plymouth records one of the longest city-level waits in the dataset, at 10 days. Across the 17 cities surveyed, the average wait for an urgent fix is just over 6 days. CITB says the UK construction industry needs to recruit the equivalent of 239,300 extra workers between 2025 and 2029. Analysis from Fix Radio shows that homeowners in the South West are facing an average seven-day wait for an urgent tradesperson fix, placing the region among the slower parts of the UK for repair response times. Based on Fix Radio’s analysis of city-level urgent repair wait-time data from Markel Direct’s Censuswide survey of UK homeowners, the findings point to continued pressure on trades capacity, local demand and labour availability across the region. The national picture remains highly uneven. The East of England records the shortest average wait at three days, followed by the North East on four days, the North West on 4.5 days and London on five. Wales and the South East each average six days, Yorkshire and the Humber sits at 6.5, while the South West, West Midlands, Scotland and Northern Ireland all come in at seven days. At the other end of the scale, the East Midlands records the longest average delay at nine days, leaving a six-day gap between the fastest and slowest regional averages in the dataset. The research also found that 44% of homeowners have already delayed repairs because of the cost of hiring a tradesperson, while city-level data shows waits stretching as high as 10 days in Plymouth for urgent issues. That makes the South West one of the clearest examples of how regional pressure can build when local demand, household repair needs and labour constraints begin to overlap. Set against a construction workforce already under strain, the figures point to a region where availability remains a growing issue for both customers and tradespeople. CITB forecasts that the industry will need to recruit the equivalent of 239,300 extra workers between 2025 and 2029, with the UK construction workforce expected to reach around 2.75 million by 2029. From Fix Radio’s perspective, the findings reflect a wider story around availability, local demand and the challenge of keeping enough skilled people in the pipeline. Waiting times are not only a sign of homeowner frustration. They also show where order books are full, where capacity is tight and where the wider conversation around skills and recruitment is becoming harder to ignore. In the South West, where regional averages are already above the national benchmark and Plymouth stands out as one of the slowest locations in the dataset, that pressure is becoming increasingly visible.
