Nine Ferrari 296 GT3s at 24 Hours of Spa

With the prologue of 13 and 14 May, the countdown has officially begun for the highly anticipated 77th edition of the 24 Hours of Spa. This competition, one of the world’s most prestigious GT races, will take place from 25 to 29 June at the Ardennes circuit. The record-breaking 76 entries will include no fewer than nine Ferrari 296 GT3s, competing across five different classes and featuring six Prancing Horse official drivers. This year, Ferrari returns with two additional entries, aiming to better the two runner-up finishes recorded in the previous season – one in the overall standings, the other in the Bronze Cup.

Two cars will represent AF Corse-Francorchamps Motors in the Pro class. Ferrari official drivers Antonio Fuoco and Arthur Leclerc will crew the number 50 alongside 2023 Ferrari Challenge Europe champion Eliseo Donno. Fellow Ferrari officials Alessandro Pier Guidi and Alessio Rovera will team up in the number 51 with Monaco’s Vincent Abril.
The Italo-Belgian outfit will also field one car in the Bronze class, the number 52, with Jef and Louis Machiels, Tommaso Mosca, and Marco Sibert.

AF Corse will enter two more cars in the Pro-Am class. Custodio Toledo, Matthew Bell, Blake McDonald, and Riccardo Agostini will share the number 70, while Louis Perez Companc, Mathias Perez Companc, Stephan Lemeret, and Ferrari official driver Miguel Molina will take the wheel of number 71.

Kessel Racing will field two Ferrari 296 GT3s, both in the Bronze class. Nicolò Rosi, Niccolò Schirò, David Fumanelli, and Daniele Di Amato will drive the number 8, and Dustin Blattner, Conrad Laursen, Dennis Marschall, and Zacharie Robichon will crew the number 74.
Another Ferrari official driver, Davide Rigon, will take the wheel of Rinaldi Racing’s number 12 in the Bronze class alongside Christian Hook, Felipe Fernandez Laser, and David Perel taking the cockpit.
Ziggo Tempesta Racing’s number 93 – winner of the 2024 GT World Challenge Europe class – rounds out Ferrari’s presence in the Bronze class, with drivers Christopher Froggatt, Eddie Cheever, and Jonathan Hui behind the wheel.

The 24 Hours of Spa features a packed programme of racing and support events. The race itself starts at 4.30 p.m. on Saturday, 28 June.
