“We turn cars from simple tools into a way of life”
Momo was founded in 1964 by race car driver Gianpiero Moretti. In that year,
Moretti commissioned a local craftsman to produce a custom steering wheel for his
own racing car. This special steering wheel – the first Momo steering wheel in the
Company’s history – had a superior and thicker grip compared to the normal racing
steering wheels available at the time. Drivers from other teams quickly noticed
Moretti’s new steering wheel and wanted the same for their cars, and so it started to
gain fame within the racing community. The new Momo steering wheel also caught
the attention of the then Ferrari Formula One driver, John Surtees, who wanted to
mount it on his single-seater car. John Surtees’ Ferrari, equipped with the Momo
racing steering wheel, won the Formula One world title in 1964. And so it was that
Gianpiero Moretti converted his his passion into a manufacturing reality, and Momo
(for Moretti Monza) was born.
