The Ferrari 499P closes the Monza tests

The Ferrari 499P underwent 2 days of testing at the Monza racetrack, retracing the Brianza track after the laps completed in October, in view of its official presentation.

The Prancing Horse Hypercar has seen the six drivers who will race in the top category of the endurance world championship alternate at the wheel. They are Antonio Fuoco, Miguel Molina and Nicklas Nielsen, who are part of the crew of 499P number 50; and Alessandro Pier Guidi, James Calado and Antonio Giovinazzi, who will race with the sister car number 51.

Therefore, the development of the Hypercar from Maranello continues in a fine-tuning process that will lead it to the prologue of the Sebring Mille Miglia scheduled for 11 and 12 March, at the Sebring International Raceway in Florida.

In less than a month, the 499 P will make its christening of the race in the 1000 Miles of Sebring, and will return again to Monza, in July, for the fifth stage of the 2023 FIA World Endurance Championship. Miguel Molina declared: “Testing our Hypercar on a historic track like Monza, less than a month after its debut, is a precious opportunity to continue fine-tuning the car.We are satisfied with the work done, even if each test highlights those details that still need to be understood and resolved in view of official competitions”.
