Ferrari Triumphs at the 24 Hours of Le Mans

Ferrari triumphed at the 24 Hours of Le Mans for the second consecutive year, solidifying the dominance of the 499P in the prestigious endurance race. After debuting with a win at the Centenary 24 Hours last year, Ferrari demonstrated its supremacy again despite strong competition.

The hypercar number 50, driven by Antonio Fuoco, Miguel Molina, and Nicklas Nielsen, secured the victory, fending off the challenge from Toyota number 7 and leaving Porsche, which started in pole position with six cars, in a disappointing fourth place.

This victory marks Ferrari’s eleventh win at Le Mans, adding to their illustrious history with previous triumphs in 1949, 1954, 1958, and from 1960 to 1965. Despite technical issues, including a door malfunction on the number 50 car and adverse weather conditions in the final hours, the Maranello team showcased remarkable resilience. The second place went to Toyota number 7, followed by the other Ferrari 499P number 51, driven by Antonio Giovinazzi, James Calado, and Alessandro Pier Guidi.

Ferrari’s win at Le Mans highlights not only the technical and strategic superiority of the team but also enhances the prestige of the Italian brand in the world of endurance racing, making fans and enthusiasts worldwide proud.
