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’s Head of Development Test Driving, and equipped with lightweight carbon-fiber wheels and Michelin Cup2R tires, the time was 1.4” faster than that set by the original car equipped with the Assetto Fiorano package and the same tires.
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 were independently measured and certified by a specialist third-party motorsports 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.
