Cetilar Racing has introduced its blue Ferrari 499P for the 2026-27 Asian Le Mans Series season. The hybrid prototype, which will compete in Europe this winter due to the Iran crisis, will be driven by Roberto Lacorte, his son Nicola Lacorte, and Ferrari factory driver Antonio Fuoco. This will be the first appearance of hypercars in the Asian LMS, with two examples set to take part.
The vehicle's metallic blue base is contrasted with green stripes and a line across the front end, drawing inspiration from the livery of the #83 Ferrari 499P in the World Endurance Championship. The Asian LMS will have a European-only calendar, with races in Le Castellet, Jerez, and Portimao. The limited availability of Bronze-rated drivers has been a significant hurdle for endurance racing programs that require amateur competitors.
Roberto Lacorte expressed excitement about the launch of Cetilar Racing and the opportunity to share the legendary Ferrari 499P with top drivers like Antonio Fuoco and his son Nicola.
