Ferrari 599XX Makes Its Track Debut in Valencia

The Ferrari 599XX first made its debut at last years Geneva Motor Show and since then we have seen some stunning pictures and got some information on how the 599XX performs, but we have never seen it in motion or heard its V12 engine doing what it does best, rev. Until now.

The Ferrari 599XX turned its first wheel on-track at the Ricardo Tormo Circuit outside of Valencia just before Ferrari began conducting tests on their new Formula One car. Piloting the new 599XX was none other than Felipe Massa who led a group of seven cars around the circuit, the rest of the cars were piloted by the lucky members of Ferrari’s Corse Clienti program. Above is the video of the proceedings and posted below are the pictures from the 599XX’s debut. Apparently Ferrari has planned various event in America, Europe and Asia for their most special customers to promote the 599XX but we’re yet to receive the phone call. So till then, enjoy the video.

Official Ferrari Press Release
Today Felipe Massa was the main protagonist on the last day of the Ferrari 599XX’s activities with its debut on the track. The Brazilian driver, who will be busy as of tomorrow in the first official Formula 1 test session this season held at Valencia’s Ricardo Tormo circuit, met the clients, who, by purchasing the non-homologated sports Berlinetta, planned exclusively to use on the track, participate in the exclusive programme bearing the same name. After several laps on board of the car Felipe said: “I really enjoyed testing this car, I think it’s extremely powerful and has an exceptional stability. Considering that it has been planned for the track it’s really easy to drive.”

The clients showed great enthusiasm for the Ferrarista sharing the debut of this exceptional car: they now have a series of events ahead of them Ferrari will organise on race tracks in America, Europe and Asia, including the Finali Mondiali. Just like in Valencia on these occasions the cars will be taken care of by the team of official technicians, able to guarantee the necessary support and assistance.
