P1racenews AI

Ferrari plans on maintaining the same lineup of drivers for its two factory 499P Le Mans Hypercars in the 2026 World Endurance Championship campaign. The team’s sportscar racing boss, Antonello Coletta, emphasizes the importance of stability in the AF Corse-run works Hypercar team’s driver lineup. Coletta expresses satisfaction with the current driver lineup and their performances since the introduction of the 499P in 2023. However, he highlights that it’s premature to confirm if the lineups for both cars will stay unchanged for a fourth season. With the Hypercar driver market evolving due to new manufacturers like Genesis, McLaren, and Ford entering the division, Ferrari is focused on ensuring the best solutions for all parties when discussing driver contracts. The team has already renewed contracts for drivers like Fuoco, Molina, Pier Guidi, Calado, and Nielsen in previous years, with a tradition of describing agreements as multi-year extensions without precise details.
