LE MANS HYPERCAR
Ferrari 499P
Maranello’s return to the top class
The 499P is Ferrari’s first prototype in the top class of endurance racing since the 312 PB of 1973. It runs to the LMH ruleset shared with Toyota, Peugeot and Cadillac: a 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 ICE plus an Energy Recovery System on the front axle, total system output capped at 500 kW (about 670 hp). Bodywork is a long-tail evolution of the Ferrari design language — the front splitter and rear deck shape directly from windtunnel optimisation around the LMH balance-of-performance window.
On debut at Le Mans 2023 the #51 won outright. In 2024 the #50 won, and the #51 finished third. By the end of 2024 Ferrari had won at Le Mans twice from two attempts and was leading the WEC Hypercar drivers’ standings.
