Ferrari 296 GT3
The Ferrari 296 GT3 is a race car version of the 296 GTB, with refinements made to redefine the car’s performance in terms of track-readiness and aesthetic demands. It was unveiled at the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps ahead of the TotalEnergies 24 Hours of Spa. The 296 GT3 features a 24-valve V-6 like the roadgoing 296GTB but without the accompanying electric motor, to comply with technical regulations. According to Ferrari, the 296 GT3 produces 20 percent more downforce than the previous 488 GT3. The engine is positioned farther forward and lower, in a 120-degree configuration with the turbos inside the V, to lower the center of gravity and improve torsional stiffness compared to the 488 GT3. The car uses an entirely new aluminum frame and has a slightly longer wheelbase than the road car to account for regulatory restrictions. The braking system has also been redesigned for the GT3, now 400 mm for the front. The Ferrari 296 GT3 represents the future of the Prancing Horse in GT racing, a sector that has always seen the closest relationship with customers and the greatest transfer of technology and innovative solutions to production cars.
