The fastest ever lap of Fiorano by a road car was
announced today. Set by the 1030-cv SF90 XX Stradale, the new limited-series
special based on the SF90 Stradale, the time of just 1’17.309” represents a new
record for homologated road cars. Driven by Raffaele de Simone, Ferrari Head of
Development Test Driving, and equipped with lightweight carbon-fibre wheels and
Michelin Cup2R tyres, the time was 1.4” faster than that set by the original
car equipped with the Assetto Fiorano package and the same tyres.
The test was carried out on the 16th of October 2023, during the
SF90 XX Stradale media launch test drives in front of leading members of the
international press, who were thus able to talk to the engineers who developed
the model and see up close the factory’s performance test prepping procedures.
The time and the telemetry was independently measured and certified by a
specialist third-party motor sports agency.
The SF90 XX Stradale will be on display at the Ferrari Museum in
Maranello from 15 December, together with an exhibition corner containing
information and insights into the car and the record.
