Six Ferraris in the Spa 1000 Kms
Maranello, 3 May – One month on from the opening round of the Le Mans Series, held at the Le Castellet circuit in France, competitors will be back in action this coming weekend for the Spa 1000 Kms, the famous endurance race that first took place back in 1924. After various ups and downs, the race has now reached its sixty fifth edition, when no less than fifty seven cars will take to the Belgian track in what is also the second round of the Intercontinental Le Mans Cup. Of the six Ferraris entered in the GTE PRO category, there are five 458 Italia GT2 cars and one F430 GT2. The action starts on Thursday with free practice, with the final session taking place on Friday, prior to qualifying, with the start of the six hour race scheduled for 14.05 on Saturday 7 May. Also heading for Spa is Giancarlo Fisichella: the Roman driver, who is on the books at Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro, is one of those entered in this much awaited event. He is teamed up with Gimmi Bruni at the wheel of one of two cars entered by the AF Corse team, from Piacenza, Italy.
