F1 Clienti and XX Programme
The Abu Dhabi circuit, inaugurated in 2009, is the venue for the F1 Clienti and XX Programme sessions featuring single-seaters that have competed in the Formula One World Championship with Scuderia Ferrari, and ‘laboratory’ cars not homologated for the road that take cutting-edge technological solutions to the extreme.
The two non-competitive programmes allow clients to take part in dedicated track sessions as part of the calendar organised by the Maranello marque. Among the cars present at Yas Marina Circuit is a Ferrari F138 that competed in the 2013 season, the last one in which the iconic V8 engine was used.
Among the out-of-series cars of the XX Programme, which the Maranello marque launched in 2005, all the models presented since then have in common the adoption of the V12 combustion engine and the testing of technologically advanced solutions. There are three 599XX and six Ferrari FXX-K Evo’s entered in the event. In the development of the XX Programme, the experience gained by Maranello’s engineers in track racing was essential, so much so that the combustion engine reaches the extraordinary power output of 1050 hp with a maximum torque of 900 Nm.
