Do Ferrari have access to the Prodrive 550's?
Considering Prodrive bought a couple 550s and built them into race cars, the only things that remained Ferrari were the basic frame and the engine block. The wokr and development was up to Prodrive. Do you think that now Prodrive are interested in Aston Martins and Ferrari appear to be interested in the GTS class, can they just buy back the Ferraris and study them considering it is a Ferrari or do Prodrive deny access from the factory?
It would help if Ferrari had access to the Prodrive machines to give them a head start. |

A head start on what? The 575GTC won, albeit with the Prodrive/Care 550s with ballast. They could have access if Prodrive/Care Group grants it. They made the cars without factory support so have no obligation to tell them what they did, I think.
