Eleven FXX Ks were on track, confirming the extraordinary success of this 1000-plus horsepower car. The 4 km circuit near Rome also saw two 599XXs, six 599XX EVOs and two FXXs, the progenitor car of this exclusive Prancing Horse project.

In addition to the 21 cars of the XX Programmes there were also five Formula 1 single-seaters of F1 Clienti, the companion project to the XX that allows a select group of customers to buy cars pensioned off by the Scuderia and have fun on the track in safety with the advice of experienced drivers like Marc Gené.

Two of Felipe Massa’s cars are on the Vallelunga track. In 2008 Massa was in contention for the title until the final race in Brazil, when only on the last lap of the Brazilian Grand Prix did Lewis Hamilton manage to subdue the Brazilian’s onslaught.

There was also an F2007 that won the World Championship with Kimi Raikkonen and an F2002, one of the record cars, belonging to Rubens Barrichello. However, the most exciting sound on the first day was the 412 T2 of 1995, the last Prancing Horse Formula 1 car with a 12-cylinder engine.
