The decrease in Engines(6) revenues (Euro 37 million, down 17.8%, also at constant currency(1) ) was attributable to lower shipments to Maserati, as the 2023 contract expiration gets closer.
Sponsorship, commercial and brand(7) revenues reached Euro 109 million, up 19.6% or 17.2% at constant currency(1) mainly attributable to the better prior year Formula 1 ranking and the contribution from brand-related activities, partially offset by lower sponsorship.
