Why Ferrari N.V. (RACE) Is Surging in 2025
We recently published an article titled Why These 15 Vehicles & Parts Stocks Are Surging In 2025. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Ferrari N.V. (NYSE:RACE) stands against the other vehicles and parts stocks.
Certain automotive companies have held up surprisingly well in the current environment, and that's especially true with companies that supply automotive parts. The high interest rate regime was supposed to crush automotive companies across the board, and early tariffs specifically targeted countries that produced the most automotive parts for the U.S.
Even then. These stocks have done well since high interest rates have made it difficult for low-income consumers to buy new cars. Instead, they have opted for repairing their existing vehicles, which has been a tailwind for automotive parts companies for the past two years. The average age of vehicles was already at a record 12.6 years in 2024, so this tailwind isn't going away anytime soon.
Customers who have higher incomes have kept on buying new vehicles. It is mostly because of them that consumer spending has held up across the board. Here are the biggest winners from this trend.
Even during bear markets, there are pockets of the market that perform exceptionally well. For example, I identified 15 Financial Services Stocks that are up the Most in 2025 in another article.
Methodology
For this article, I screened the best-performing vehicles & parts stocks year-to-date.
I will also mention the number of hedge fund investors in these stocks. Why are we interested in the stocks that hedge funds pile into? The reason is simple: our research has shown that we can outperform the market by imitating the top stock picks of the best hedge funds. Our quarterly newsletter's strategy selects 14 small-cap and large-cap stocks every quarter and has returned 373.4% since May 2014, beating its benchmark by 218 percentage points (see more details here).

Number of Hedge Fund Holders In Q4 2024: 37
Ferrari N.V. (NYSE:RACE) designs and manufactures high-performance luxury sports cars and competes in Formula 1 racing worldwide.
Ferrari N.V. (NYSE:RACE)'s stock has seen significant growth in 2025, primarily due to its strong financial performance and strategic commercial policy updates. In March 2025, Ferrari announced an update to its commercial policy regarding import tariffs on EU cars into the USA.
The company decided to maintain unchanged commercial terms for orders of all models imported before April 2, 2025, and for three specific model families (Ferrari 296, SF90, and Roma), regardless of import date. For other current models, Ferrari N.V. (NYSE:RACE) implemented a maximum 10% price increase in coordination with its dealer network. Despite these tariff challenges, Ferrari confirmed its financial targets for 2025, noting only a potential risk of 50 basis points reduction in profitability percentage margins.

6 F1 storylines for the Austrian Grand Prix
After a week off, Formula 1 returns to action with the Austrian Grand Prix. However, a few teams likely welcomed the week away from the track. A dramatic collision between McLaren teammates Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris knocked Norris out of the race, and dropped him 17 points behind Piastri in the Drivers' Championship standings, and opened the door to further speculation over how McLaren will handle a championship-caliber car, and two incredibly fast drivers. Advertisement That question, and more, are on the docket as the grid heads to Austria. How does McLaren respond after the Canadian Grand Prix? F1 Grand Prix of Canada As the 2025 F1 season began, everyone knew this moment was coming. That belief did not make it any less shocking when the moment finally arrived. With McLaren beginning the year as the dominant force on the grid, with the MCL39 the premier package, they looked destined to repeat as Constructors' Champions, while Norris and Piastri appeared as frontrunners for the Drivers' Championship. But an eventual battle between the two — months removed from last year's 'Papaya Rules' storyline — loomed. Advertisement That came to a head in Montreal, as the teammates locked horns in the closing laps of the Canadian Grand Prix. As they battled for fourth in the final act of the race, they came together at the run into Turn 1, as Norris tried to squeeze by his teammate on the inside: Norris took immediate responsibility for the incident (and for 'being stupid' in his words) in the moments after the race, even apologizing to Piastri in the media pen. Team Principal Andrea Stella noted that apology in his own comments, as he outlined that a collision between two McLarens is 'not acceptable.' 'Well, we never want to see a McLaren car involved in an accident and definitely we don't want to see the two McLarens having contact, so this situation is a situation that we know is not acceptable,' began Stella after the Canadian Grand Prix. 'At the same time, we appreciate that Lando immediately owned it and apologized to the team, which for us sort of reset the situation. I'm sure he has an important learning point coming from this race, he paid a price in the championship. Advertisement 'Like I said, we appreciate his behaviour straight after the accident and we will go racing again.' They indeed go racing again this week in Austria. But as they remain one-two in the Drivers' Championship standings, will there be another scrap like the one in Montreal between these fast teammates this season? Marvelous Max Verstappen at Red Bull Ring Two figures will loom over the festivities this week, one literal, another figurative. The first is the massive statue that hangs over the circuit in Austria, that will cast a shadow over the sea of orange that assembles to cheer their hero: F1 Grand Prix of Austria The other is how well Max Verstappen has done in this home race for Red Bull. Advertisement While how Norris and McLaren rebound from Montreal is likely the main story heading into the Austrian Grand Prix, one cannot overlook Verstappen's success at Red Bull's home race. Verstappen has been nothing short of dominant at Red Bull Ring, notching four victories and five pole positions over his career at the Austrian Grand Prix. One of those pole positions came a year ago, as Verstappen edged out Norris and George Russell to secure P1. While he did not win the 2024 Austrian Grand Prix — more on that in a minute — he did secure a win in the F1 Sprint race at Red Bull Ring last year. This year is a standard Grand Prix weekend, with no F1 Sprint race, but Verstappen's success at Red Bull Ring absolutely makes him a threat to win this week. Still, he will have to keep things clean in Austria, as he remains one penalty point shy of a one-race suspension. The next two penalty points on his FIA Super License are set to expire after this weekend, points that he earned in this race a year ago. Austria 2024, revisited While the incident between Piastri and Norris at the Canadian Grand Prix was perhaps the first truly dramatic moment of the 2025 F1 season, it was this race a year ago that offered the first stunning incident of the 2024 campaign, and the battle between Norris and Verstappen. Advertisement After a slow pit stop on Lap 52 of last year's Austrian Grand Prix, Verstappen was left to cling to a lead over Norris. The two battled over several laps, often at Turn 3, and then on Lap 64 the two clashed again, coming together again at Turn 3: Both Verstappen and Norris suffered punctures, and the damage to Norris' MCL38 was terminal. Verstappen was able to continue, but he was given a ten-second penalty for causing the collision. That penalty did not factor in his qualification, as he finished fifth, more than 14 seconds behind fourth-place Lewis Hamilton. Verstappen was also given two penalty points on his Super License for causing the collision, points which expire following this year's Austrian Grand Prix. The incident truly kicked off the title fight between the two friends, and speculation about the relationship between the two followed them around the world over the rest of the season. While the two drivers brushed those aside in many a press conference, Austria was not the last time they clashed on the track last season. Advertisement Their clash at Red Bull Ring a year ago also opened the door for Russell, who was more than happy to pick up the pieces and claim a win at Red Bull Ring. Mercedes on the rise As for Russell, he and Mercedes are coming off a dream weekend at the Canadian Grand Prix. The Mercedes driver captured pole position for the second consecutive season in Montreal, and he was able to hold off Verstappen over the closing laps to secure his first win of the season. As for his new teammate, rookie Kimi Antonelli, the 18-year-old became the third youngest driver to secure a podium in F1 history with his third-place finish at the Canadian Grand Prix. Only Verstappen and Lance Stroll were younger when they picked up their maiden F1 podium finishes. Advertisement Russell's victory in Montreal pulled him to within 23 points of Verstappen for third place in the F1 Drivers' Championship standings, and the double-podium result for Mercedes saw the Silver Arrows edge ahead of Ferrari in the battle for second in the Constructors' standings. Can they keep it rolling in Austria? It might come down to the weather. Mercedes has been strongest in cooler conditions the past season-plus, which might have Toto Wolff and company watching the weather more than anything else this week. Frustration at Ferrari Spanish Grand Prix - Preview Day - Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya The buildup to the Canadian Grand Prix saw some tension boil to the surface at Ferrari. Advertisement Team Principal Frederic Vasseur was forced to respond to reports from Italian media that he was under increasing pressure to keep his position. Both La Gazzetta della Sport and Corriere della Sera released reports in the days ahead of the Canadian Grand Prix that Vasseur, as well as other key management figures, were under threat of losing their jobs should the team keep underperforming. Vasseur fired back in Montreal, with both Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc coming to his defense. 'I don't know the target. I don't understand the target. Perhaps it's to give shit to the team, but in this case I don't see the point. Perhaps, for them, it's the only way to exist but it's really hurting the team,' said Vasseur in Montreal. 'At one stage, it's the lack of focus and when you are fighting for the championship, every single detail makes the difference. And from the beginning of the weekend we are just speaking about this. Advertisement 'If it's their target to put the team in this situation, they reach their goal. But I think it's really... It's not like this that we will be able to win a championship. And at least not with this kind of journalist around us.' 'Things aren't perfect,' said Hamilton. 'But for me, I'm here to work with the team, but also with Fred. I want Fred here. I do believe Fred is the person to take us to the top.' 'We have a vision that we share, us three - Fred, Lewis and myself, in order to try and get back to winning. And we've been working to put that all together. This is our plan. And we should stick to it,' added Leclerc. Both Leclerc and Hamilton finished in the points in Montreal, but the double-podium result from Mercedes saw the Silver Arrows slip ahead of Ferrari in the standings, dropping the Scuderia to third. Advertisement Can they take that spot back in Austria? Sauber on the upward track Change was in the air at Sauber as the 2025 F1 season began. Last year's driver pairing of Zhou Guanyu and Valtteri Bottas was out, with the two taking on reserve roles at Ferrari and Mercedes, respectively. In were veteran Nico Hülkenberg and rookie Gabriel Bortoleto, last season's F2 Drivers' Champion. Jonathan Wheatley joined the team in the spring as the new Team Principal, coming over from years of service as the Sporting Director at Red Bull. And these changes come as more are on the horizon, as the team becomes the Audi works operation next year. Advertisement But despite the changes, and the tenth-place finish a season ago, Sauber has surprised this year. While they sit ninth in the standings they are coming off a pair of points results, as Hülkenberg finished eighth in the Canadian Grand Prix, and an impressive fifth in the Spanish Grand Prix, as he passed Lewis Hamilton on the final lap to secure a strong result. Now Hülkenberg heads to another track where he delivered a strong result, as he finished sixth in this race a year ago. Hülkenberg sat down with Lawrence Barretto ahead of the Spanish Grand Prix, and spoke about what lies ahead for him, and Sauber, as the transition to Audi continues. 'It's such a reset and a white piece of paper that everyone starts from. It's impossible to predict anything. Advertisement 'The big four teams have an advantage in terms of infrastructure and all these kinds of things. But it's a good opportunity, because it is a reset, it is a fresh start for everyone with these new regulations,' said Hülkenberg. 'It's extremely exciting and a good opportunity for everyone, including ourselves. We need to work hard, we need to work focused on it and hopefully we'll come out on the right side of it.' But while that transition comes next season, can Hülkenberg and Sauber make it three consecutive finishes in the points this week?

Prime Minister Carney in Brussels today for EU-Canada summit
BRUSSELS - Prime Minister Mark Carney is in Belgium today, where he visited a military cemetery before meeting with European Union leaders at an EU-Canada summit. Carney said on social media Sunday that he was in Brussels to launch 'a new era of partnership' between Canada and the European Union for the benefit of workers, businesses and security 'on both sides of the Atlantic.' Carney started the day with a visit to the Antwerp Schoonselhof Military Cemetery where 348 Canadian soldiers are buried. Later, he is expected to meet with Belgian Prime Minister Bart De Wever, European Council President António Costa and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. Carney posted on social media early on Monday that he spoke with U.S. President Donald Trump overnight, noting the conversation addressed the need to de-escalate the conflict in the Middle East, their shared commitment of a stronger NATO and progress in ongoing trade talks between Canada and the United States. At the EU-Canada summit, Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand and Defence Minister David McGuinty are expected to sign a security and defence agreement with the European bloc in what one European official described last week as one of the most ambitious deals the continent's powers have ever signed with a third country. The security and defence agreement aims to open the door to Canada's participation in the joint purchase of weapons with European countries. It will also lead to Canada's participation in the ReArm Europe initiative, allowing Canada to access a 150-billion-euro program for defence procurement, called Security Action for Europe. Canada will need to sign a second agreement with the European Commission before it can take part in the program. A government official briefing reporters on the trip said the partnership is expected to make procurement easier and more affordable, while also allowing Canada to diversify the sources of equipment. At the EU-Canada summit, leaders are also expected to issue a joint statement to underscore a willingness for continued pressure on Russia to end its war on Ukraine, including through further sanctions, and call for an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza. The joint statement is also expected to touch on climate change, trade and digital and tech policy. Leaders at the EU-Canada summit are also slated to discuss global trade and commit to working towards full ratification and implementation of the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement, the Canada-Europe free trade deal known as CETA. The pact took effect provisionally in 2017, and most of its contents now apply. But all EU countries need to approve CETA before it can take full effect, with 10 members still left to ratify the deal. Carney, Costa and von der Leyen are scheduled to hold a joint press conference in the evening. On Tuesday, Carney travels to The Hague for the NATO summit. The international meetings come as Canada looks to reduce its defence procurement reliance on the United States due to strained relations over tariffs and U.S. President Donald Trump's repeated talk about Canada becoming a U.S. state. This report by The Canadian Press was first published June 23, 2025.
