Gracias Nicoletta. Thank you, everyone, for joining us today. The past few months have been reach of important milestones for our company, among which the launch of the Ferrari Amalfi, the 849 Testarossa family, the first step of the reveal of the Ferrari Elettrica and the Capital Markets Day. Let's start from the Capital Market Day. On October 9, in Maranello, we gathered together and we shared our ambitions and plans for the future with investors, journalists and the entire world. In this current uncertain world, we shared an ambitious financial floor for the end of this decade, EUR 9 billion of revenues, 40% EBITDA margin and 30% EBIT margin. What did we say? What did we say at Capital Market Day exactly? Two things. We highlighted that Ferrari is a unique company, which combines 3 dimensions: heritage, technology and racing. It has a dual identity, both inclusive and exclusive capable to engage with tifosi, royalty and brand values across generations and geographies. We have set ambitions for each soul with unwavering goal to keep our brands strong for the longer term, well beyond 2030. In racing, we aim to win, we want to continue to be successful in Endurance and come back to victory Formula 1. We owe this to our P4 to fuel the passion and inclusive side of our brand. In sports cars, we continue to focus on managing and crafting the exclusivity of our product through an horizontal product diversification strategy, which ensures custody for each single model. We confirm our innovation pace. We will continue to offer our clients an average of 4 new models per year between '26 and 2030 across the 3 different powertrains: ICE, hybrid and electric to address different clients and different clients' needs. In 2022, we told you that the 2030 breakdown of powertrain offering would have been 20% ICE, 40% hybrid and 40% electric. Our plans were based on the environment in 2022 and our expectation about its evolution. Today, in 2025, we have deliberately recalibrated our powertrain offer to be 40% ICE, 40% hybrid and 20% electric. Why did we decide this? Two are the main reasons. One, market dynamics. We have always believed in electrification as an addition, not as a transition. Overall market adoption of electric technology has been more gradual than anticipated in 2022. At the same time, demand for thermal and hybrid models has been more sustained. Two, client centricity. We put our clients always at the center of what we do. We are very flexible and agile to adapt our product plans to the evolving environment, developing and offering models that best address our client needs and meet their preferences. Regardless of the powertrain, we will keep on harnessing each technology in a unique and distinctive way, enhancing the driving emotions and staying true to our belief that we have to be innovative, adapting to the changing times. That is what our founder did since 1947, when he dared to develop our first, first cylinder engine, although nobody believed in it. It's our responsibility. It's our responsibility to keep alive this will to progress. This technology neutrality approach is something we have chosen. We have planned for and invested in also from an infrastructure point of view. The e-building, our new facility in Maranello capable to manufacture the 3 powertrains is the perfect examples of this flexible approach. Our research and development efforts will not only focus on powertrain performance, but also on vehicle dynamics, experience on board and the new materials, all of which make our product unique. Moving to clients. We will continue to grow our Ferrari families, which today counts 90,000 active clients and to foster their sense of belonging in community through an ecosystem of unique experiences from track to road to brand. Lastly, lifestyle. This is the soul that is instrumental to enrich the client experience and to widen our audience beyond our tifosi and Ferrari. I personally believe the team did a great job in bringing brand consistency. We then cultivated everything I just said with the help of Antonio, and let me underline and -- let me highlight a couple of elements. One, we continue to grow our business to new heights in an organic and consistent way. We look at the 2030 target as a floor of our ambitions, always acting in the long-term interest of our brand, safeguarding exclusivity above all. The macroeconomic environment remains uncertain and extremely volatile. However, the visibility and solidity of our business model allowed us to commit to an ambitious plan of 6 years of growth, which we will execute with focus and discipline as we did for the previous one. We will continue to deliver on our promises. And then we concluded the Capital Market Day with our renewed decarbonization commitment. We have already achieved approximately 30% reduction in our Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions and approximately 10% reduction per car in Scope 3 emission in 2024 versus 2021. We will capitalize on this achievement with a clear target to reduce our Scope 1 and Scope 2 emission by 10x in 2030 versus '21 and to decrease by 25% the absolute Scope 3 emission in 2030 versus the past year 2024. Moreover, the day before the Capital Markets Day, we unveiled the technology of our Ferrari Elettrica. This represents the first step of the wheel, which will be followed by the look and feel of the interior design concept in Q1 '26 and the complete car in Q2 2026. As a leaders, Ferrari as a leader takes its innovation responsibility very seriously. The Ferrari Elettrica is a new opportunity to reaffirm our will to progress as it has happened many times in the past with the introduction of innovative concepts such as with turbo engines, hybrid powertrain and most recently with the Purosangue, there is great anticipation to experience the driving emotion of the Elettrica. After the Capital Market Day, I met several clients in U.S.A., in Korea, in China and in Italy. And all of them appreciated the way we present the model. This is what they told me. The electric cars are generally heavy as elephants and not fun to drive. You did well to invest in active electronic system to transform the elephant in a horse and to engage the drivers with pedro shift like in all Ferrari. We are looking forward to driving it. We can continue to be innovative if we keep the pace of change and having the 3 powertrains in our portfolio is a clear advantage, especially in front of younger generations. With the first step of the reveal of the Ferrari Elettrica and unveiling in September of the 849 Testarossa, coupe inspired, we have concluded the 6 launches we had announced 1 year ago for the entire '25. I met many clients in Europe, in the U.S.A. and in China, who are in love with Testarossa. Last week in China, I met a young female client, younger than 40 years old, and she told me, Testarossa is the perfect harmonious blend of design and engineering, elegant and craftsmanship. I'm eager to own one and drive it. In the past few months, almost all range model in production were substantially sold out. The launches of the Testarossa family and Amalfi and the great traction in clients are initially contributing to the order intake. Indeed, the order book extends well into 2027. Over the next few quarters, we will have a significant change over of models. Indeed, in January '25, only 15% of our lineup was in ramp-up phase of production, while we will close the year with 35% of the lineup in ramp-up phase, and this is the result of all the activities of development that we did in the past years. Moving to the quarters, Q3 '25 saw continued growth. Just a few key numbers to highlight. One, total revenues reached approximately EUR 1.8 billion, a 7.4% growth year-over-year with flat deliveries. Two, strong profitability with EBIT of over EUR 500 million. And last but not least, industrial free cash flow at EUR 365 million. These are solid business performance. This solid business performance allowed us to revise upward the '25 guidance during the Capital Market Day in October. Our revised guidance exceeds the profitability target we had originally set for '26 in the previous business plan 1 year in advance. Moreover, the decision to complete the current share repurchase program within this year, once again 1 year earlier than planned, also reflects such progress and strong confidence that we have in the future. And now I will leave the stage to Antonio to explain the quarter in more depth.
