Ferrari has confirmed that it will enter the 2023 World Endurance Championship with an entry in the new Le Mans Hypercar class, which is likely to form the basis of a road-going replacement for the LaFerrari.
These new spy shots are our first look at the upcoming Aston Martin Valhalla rival, as it undergoes the first stages of its on-road development programme.
Ferrari has already confirmed the project’s existence. Back in 2019, the company’s chief marketing officer, Enrico Galliera, told Auto Express: “Yes, we are working on the next hypercar, which will come after 2022.”
Earlier in 2021, Ferrari confirmed that it will build a new Le Mans Hypercar for the 2023 World Endurance Championship season, which is likely to be based on this upcoming road-going hypercar. The move marks the first time Ferrari has contested an outright victory at Le Mans since 1973, with the brand focussing on GT class racing in recent years.
