*This content was translated by AI.

Ferrari will compete in the third round of the 2026 FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) and the 94th 24 Hours of Le Mans, launching a chase for the lead. The race will be held at the Circuit de la Sarthe in France from June 13 to 14, with the final race starting at 4 p.m. local time on Saturday. Unlike the standard six-hour races, this round awards double the championship points (50 points for a win), making it a critical turning point that will determine the momentum for the second half of the season.

Currently, Ferrari sits in third place in the Manufacturers' Championship standings with 42 points, trailing the leader by 17 points. In the Drivers' Championship, the Antonio Fuoco crew holds 23 points in sixth place, the Alessandro Pier Guidi crew holds 19 points in seventh place, and the Ipey Ye crew holds 9 points in 11th place, all aiming for a turnaround based on the results of this event.

In this race, Ferrari will enter three cars in the top-tier Hypercar class: the #50 and #51 499P cars from the official AF Corse team and the #83 499P from a private team, challenging for a three-peat victory. Following back-to-back wins in the 100th-anniversary edition in October 2023 and the 2024 season, Ferrari also claimed the top spot in 2025 with the #83 car.

After the season opener at the Imola round, the #51 car finished second, and at the second round in Spa-Francorchamps, Belgium, the #50 car secured third place, maintaining podium finishes throughout.
