AF Corse
AF Corse is the Ferrari-aligned endurance racing team from Piacenza that has grown from a 2002 Italian racing outfit into one of the defining names in modern GT and Hypercar competition. The team is Ferrari's Racing Partner in the Hypercar program and Ferrari Competizioni GT's official partner — the operational core through which Ferrari's modern endurance identity is built and expressed.
// origin
The Beginning
AF Corse was founded in 2002 in Piacenza, in the heart of Italy's Motor Valley. From the start, the team built its reputation on hard work, technical discipline, and a long progression through international motorsport rather than a single flashpoint moment. Its own history describes that growth as a steady climb through top-level endurance racing and major GT championships.

Building Momentum
The relationship with Ferrari began in 2006, when AF Corse became deeply tied to Ferrari's GT program. That partnership ran through the 430, 458, 488, and 296 eras, and the team's official history presents the 488 as "the most successful GT ever."
AF Corse is not just a team that races Ferraris — it is one of the main institutions through which Ferrari's GT identity has been built, season after season, across the world's most demanding endurance circuits.

The Machines
The most important chapter in the modern AF Corse story is the Ferrari 499P. Ferrari chose AF Corse as its racing partner for the return to the top class of the FIA WEC and Le Mans, and AF Corse officially and exclusively operates the car.
That chapter has already become historic. AF Corse's official records show Ferrari winning Le Mans in 2023, 2024, and 2025 with the 499P — three consecutive overall victories that cemented the team's place among the greatest endurance racing operations ever assembled.

More Than a Racing Team
What makes AF Corse stand out is that it represents both continuity and scale. The team records seven total Le Mans victories and eight FIA WEC GTE titles, showing how long its influence has stretched across endurance racing.
Its headquarters in Piacenza spans 8,100 square metres across offices, workshops, bodywork, and warehouses — a physical reflection of the size and seriousness of the operation behind the results.

In The Paddock
AF Corse remains central to Ferrari's current endurance structure. The 2026 FIA WEC entry list shows Ferrari AF Corse entries for the factory Hypercar cars #50 and #51, plus AF Corse #83 in Hypercar, and Vista AF Corse entries in LMGT3 with Ferrari 296 LMGT3 Evo cars #21 and #54.
AF Corse is not just part of Ferrari's past — it is one of the team structures shaping Ferrari's present across multiple classes simultaneously.

Current Chapter
Today, AF Corse's story is no longer just about being a successful customer team. It is the operational core of Ferrari's modern endurance project — the team that carries the 499P program and continues to run Ferrari programs across Hypercar and GT racing. Historical, factory-connected, technically respected, and still winning at the very highest level.
