"No secrets" between factory Ferraris and customer AF Corse in WEC
According to Ferrari sportscar racing technical director Ferdinando Cannizzo, there will be full data exchange between the works cars run by AF Corse and the satellite operation handling the additional car for Robert Kubica, Robert Shwartzman, and Yifei Ye. Cannizzo emphasized that there are no secrets between the teams, with all information shared openly to ensure all three Ferraris are aiming for the podium. Ferrari and AF Corse are working together closely on the race strategy, treating the three cars as a singular team on the pitwall. Ferrari supports AF Corse’s customer entry within the larger set-up, with a focus on managing the engine and hybrid system of the additional car. Despite the extra challenge of running a third hypercar in the WEC, Cannizzo believes the effort will provide valuable information for the development of the car, benefiting Ferrari in the long run. Coletta, Ferrari’s sportscar racing boss, is optimistic about AF Corse’s performance relative to the factory team, as long as Ferrari remains competitive at the front of the field.
