Definitely one good looking car there, especially in Ferrari red. If it’s as good as it looks, they are in for a lot of success

Once Ferrari truly realizes that appetite, I cannot see them not building and selling cars to privateers (and maybe they've already understand the full potential of this project and are close to committing to exactly that).
Are not LMDh/GTP cars subject to a much lower cost cap than LMH cars as they are based on a number of approved manufacturers including Multimatic?

So I thought Privateers would go GTP route.

Thought Ferrari were/are embarrassed by ‘their’ last ever LM victory?

The base might be cheaper across the development of LMDh vs Hypercar, but Porsche is going to require you buy the spares and support they want and according to many reports show you have the funding and team to run the car for the season. They can only make so many a year and want them racing not stored like the SRO GT2 cars seemed to be. I would guess the same rules would be applied to purchase of Acura, Caddy, BMW, Lamborghini and anyone else jumping in.

Cant wait to see it on the grid. I hope theres customer cars in the future. Seeing one in imsa would be great. I like the information on them running 2 cars from almost the onset of testing. Covering over 10k km in the months from this summer is a big achievement.

Would it be any different if buying Peugeot or Ferrari Hypercar? Probably not.

It makes sense on so many levels to do this. To finally get Mick in a Ferrari, and to do Le Mans like his father. Some really nice synergy there.

Depends I guess whether Ferrari want to retain him under contract ultimately. It's pretty rare to see a junior driver from a top team dropped by the lesser team they've been placed in.

At the very least it would be good to see him get a test, but 2023 might arrive too soon.

Can understand why they chose him. Italian, with links to Ferrari, plus quite a bit of experience

I'd be really keen to see him back in sportscars after a brutal year in FE.

He's done Le Mans once. I also remember seeing him race at Silverstone in the ELMS. Giovinazzi, Mitch Evans and Sean Gelael was a decent lineup for sure.

Great drivers there!
From a danish perspective, this puts three danish drivers in three different manufactures, all with a good chance to win.

Really hope they are rapid out of the box. Lineups were fairly easy to guess - for me it was just a question over Molina or Rovera for the last seat.

Forza Ferrari, what can I say. Still a pinch yourself moment that they are back.

No reason to assume Porsche will either. I accept that their reputation precedes them, but it doesn't make them favourites, IMO.
