The illustrious Italian marque, Ferrari, triumphantly secured an outright victory at the revered 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2023, marking a monumental achievement not accomplished since 1965. In a celebratory twist, the automaker now offers a chance for a select group of enthusiasts to experience a reimagined version of this race-bred marvel on both the track and the open road.
Behold the Ferrari 499P Modificata, a variant of the Le Mans-winning race car, meticulously crafted for those seeking the ultimate driving experience, unburdened by competition regulations. With this extraordinary machine, Ferrari can introduce enhancements that would typically be prohibited by Le Mans rules. For instance, the electric motor on the front axle now operates at lower speeds, eliminating the previous limitation of functioning exclusively above 118 miles per hour (190 kilometers per hour) dictated by FIA regulations. This pivotal adjustment grants drivers the freedom to fully exploit the all-wheel-drive system on a more frequent basis.
