Ferrari AF Corse have celebrated its recent 24 Hours of Le Mans in style with a victory parade in Maranello in front of thousands of fans.
The two Ferrari 499P Hypercars, which compete in the FIA WEC's premier Hypercar category, left the Prancing Horse's headquarters to form a parade through the streets of the town center yesterday (Tuesday) passing iconic locations such as the Ferrari Museum.
All six Hypercar drivers were in attendance for the special parade which started in the morning and continued throughout the day with Chairman John Elkann in attendance as both the No. 50 and No. 51 Hypercars were displayed alongside the Centenary 24 Hours of Le Mans trophy in the factory after the parade.
