Fifty Years After Daytona Sweep, Ferrari 488S Target GT Class Victory in 24 Hours • Risi Competizione Returns with Factory Fifty Years after Daytona Sweep, Ferrari 488s Target GT Class Victory in 24 Hours Risi Competizione returns with factory drivers Calado, Fisichella, and Vilander in GT-LeMans Defending IMSA champions Alessandro Balzan and Christina Nielsen are joined by Matteo Cressoni and Ferrari factory driver Sam Bird at Scuderia Corsa Peter Mann returns to Daytona alongside Alessandro Pier Guidi, Maurizio Mediani, Rino Mastronardi and factory driver Davide Rigon in the Spirit of Race Ferrari 488 GT3 January 24, 2017 (Englewood Cliffs, N.J.) – This year’s 24 Hours of Daytona marks fifty years since one of the race’s most famous finishes. Ferrari arrived at the 1967 24 Hours of Daytona with four cars targeting the overall victory, including the two examples of the new 330 P4. After twenty-four hours, the 330 P4 of Chris Amon and Lorenzo Bandini had done just that. The image of the three red Ferraris, led by Amon and Bandini’s No. 23 Ferrari 330 P4, became one of the most famous images in the race’s history. Fifty years later, three Ferrari 488s will look to add to the company’s legacy as Ferrari celebrates its 70th anniversary. Edwin Fenech, President and CEO of Ferrari North America is excited to return to Daytona, “After hosting an epic Ferrari World Finals in December at the Daytona International Speedway, we are looking forward to returning to the track for the start of the GT season where three Ferrari 488s will battle on the high banks to open the next chapter in GT racing here in America . The historic Ferrari win at Daytona 50 years ago certainly serves as great inspiration for us and the teams.” Continued Ferrari spa Sede sociale P.Iva – Cod. Fisc.
