Ferrari 499P undergoes 2027 development testing at Circuit of the Americas

The Circuit of the Americas hosted testing for Ferrari’s 499P on September 8 and 9. A 499P wearing a camouflage livery ahead of the 2027 season took to the Texas circuit following the fifth FIA WEC race, where Ferrari claimed its first victory of the season with the number 50 crew.

James Calado, Antonio Fuoco, Nicklas Nielsen and Yifei Ye took turns at the wheel of the development car to test technical and aerodynamic solutions that could be introduced from next season.

The sessions enabled the team to continue its scheduled development work, building on the program that began at Monza in July.

Calado, Fuoco, Nielsen and Ye also took the opportunity to test their respective 499P race cars for the current 2026 season on the 5.513km Circuit of the Americas.

The Maranello manufacturer will return to FIA WEC action in Japan over the weekend of September 27 for the 6 Hours of Fuji.
