Sports car racing fans from around the world rejoiced when Ferrari unveiled its 499P prototype in late 2022. After all, it ended a 50-year absence of factory-backed Ferrari prototypes competing at the sport’s highest level—and the brand celebrated its return by adopting 50 as its flagship car number in the process. The 499P quickly established itself as a global force to be reckoned with, winning Le Mans on its first try in 2023 and going back-to-back the next year as well.
As with other top-tier prototypes competing in the world’s major global series, the 499P is powered by a 671 horsepower twin-turbo hybrid motor. Weighing in at just 1120 kg, drivers will quickly cycle through its seven-speed sequential paddle shift to find top speed at long straightaways like those on the famed French circuit. Any driver who can find the limits of the 499P is among the best of the best in sports car racing, whether real or virtual.
