Risi Competizione has finished the build of its new Ferrari 488 GTE at Michelotto in Italy, as it’s set for a shakedown next Monday at Fiorano before transport to the U.S.

The compressed timeline is tight before the Rolex 24 at Daytona, but the delivery remains on schedule for the new 488 GTE to arrive on U.S. soil as of Rolex 24 race week.

Following the shakedown, the car will then be flown to Miami later next week. The Risi transporter will pick it up in Miami and bring it up to Daytona in preparation for the Rolex 24 race week.

Full-season drivers Giancarlo Fisichella and Toni Vilander will share the No. 62 Ferrari with Davide Rigon and Olivier Beretta at the Rolex 24.
