Ferrari HyperCar Completes Portimao Test

The Ferrari LMH (Le Mans Hypercar) completed a successful three days of testing at the Portimão circuit in Portugal. The tests were part of the car’s development programme ahead of its debut at the 1000 Miles of Sebring in the United States, the opening round of the FIA World Endurance Championship.

Alessandro Pier Guidi, James Calado, Antonio Fuoco, Miguel Molina and Davide Rigon took turns at the wheel. Some of these drivers also participated in the concurrent testing of Ferrari’s equally new 296 GT3.

The test at the Algarve circuit particularly focused on various set-up configurations. Changeable weather over the three days meant sessions on dry asphalt alternated with others on a wet track.

The Ferrari test follows mileage at both Barcelona and Mugello, both of which have hosted multi-day tests.
