AF Corse To Run Ferrari LMH Programme

Ferrari have officially announced a partnership with AF Corse to collaborate in the management of the team that will work alongside Competizioni GT in the Le Mans Hypercar (LMH) programme from 2023 in the FIA World Endurance Championship.

The team will compete in the championship as “Ferrari – AF Corse”, continuing on a winning streak started in the FIA GT 2006 with the F430 GT2 that, in its debut season, produced the team, drivers and Constructors’ title.

Since the inception of the FIA WEC in 2012 Ferrari and AF Corse have collaborated on six team and drivers’ titles in the LMGTE Pro and LMGTE Am classes, five Constructors’ titles for Ferrari crowned with three triumphs at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

“Ferrari and AF Corse have enjoyed a solid relationship for a long time, as you can see in the FIA WEC, where we run our official 488 GTEs together with the Piacenza-based team.

“We look forward to continuing together on a journey as rewarding as the years of racing cooperation to date.”

“We are proud of this announcement. It is the crowning of a dream and recognition of the great effort made over the years.
