Ferrari won the 2024 edition of the 24 Hours Le Mans, the fourth round of the FIA World Endurance Championship. The Red team celebrates after a fantastic weekend, a victory built lap after lap with a perfect strategy that defeated the competition from Toyota, Cadillac and Porsche after a day of action in which literally everything happened.
The journey, which began at the end of 2022 from a blank sheet of paper, led to the first victory at Le Mans after 58 years last June, a goal that was confirmed today with an excellent performance by Nicklas Nielsen/Miguel Molina/Antonio Fuoco. The Dane, the Spaniard and the Calabrian stood out by recovering from a disadvantage created by a problem with the door of 499P n. 50, a tiny situation that could have ruined an entire year’s work.
The affirmation signed in 2023 was more special than ever in view of a 2024 in which confirmation will be more complicated than ever. From the first lap of last Sunday’s test it was immediately clear how the hypothetical confirmation was more complicated than ever, a very difficult mission given the many competitors present in the premier class.
The strategy of courage has been a winning one for Ferrari, which is now looking to win the FIA World Endurance Championship before focusing on a new adventure in the most famous car competition in the world, a unique event in which Ferrari has returned forcefully, writing in 2023 and today two indelible pages of its history.
