Giovinazzi Signs Multi-Year Contract Extension With Ferrari

Antonio Giovinazzi has signed a new, multi-year contact extension with Ferrari, continuing a relationship with the Prancing Horse that started in 2017.

Announced on Tuesday ahead of this weekend’s FIA World Endurance Championship round at Sao Paulo, Ferrari has stated that Giovinazzi “will continue to represent the Prancing Horse as official driver in endurance racing.”

Additionally, Giovinazzi also remains a reserve driver for Ferrari’s Formula 1 operation.

Giovinazzi first joined the Italian manufacturer as an F1 reserve in 2017, making his 24 Hours of Le Mans debut as part of AF Corse’s GTE-Pro effort a year later.

He is currently in the midst of a third consecutive season with Ferrari’s Hypercar program, most notably winning the centenary edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2023.

Together with James Calado and Alessandro Pier Guidi, the 31-year-old currently leads the drivers’ standings in the world championship with four races remaining.

“Eight years ago, I began my adventure with Ferrari, which for me is much more than a team: it’s a family,” Giovinazzi said.

“Renewing today means continuing a challenge that gets me charged up every day, in an environment where people, teamwork and ambition matter.

“Being an official driver in the WEC and the third driver in Formula 1 is a commitment that I am honoured and excited to undertake.

“I want to thank Ferrari for their continued faith in me: growing in these team colours is truly special.

“I can’t wait for the next chapters of this story, which I will embark on with the commitment, passion and hunger for results that have always been part of me.”
