Ferrari drew extensively too on its experience in both Formula One and endurance racing, bringing to the road the technology that delivered victory in two editions of the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the title in the WEC (World Endurance Championship).

The 488 in the car’s moniker indicates the engine’s unitary displacement while the GTB stands for Gran Turismo Berlinetta, a reference to its deep roots in Ferrari history.
