2006 FERRARI F430 GTC

2006 Ferrari F430 GTC
Chassis 2410

Built by Michelotto as one of the early examples of Ferrari’s highly successful F430 GTC, chassis 2410 was the fifth car delivered and is one of approximately 53 examples built. Developed specifically for international GT2 competition, the F430 GTC would go on to become one of Ferrari’s most successful GT racing cars of its era.

Originally purchased directly from Michelotto by its first owner, chassis 2410 made an immediate impression during the 2006 season. Competing in the Le Mans Series, it claimed victory at the Nürburgring with Stefano Zonca, Andrea Belicchi and Marco Cioci, as well as pole position at Istanbul with Sundberg and Diez Villaroel.

Its success continued in 2007, when chassis 2410 claimed victory in the International GT Open at Barcelona with Paolo Ruberti and Maurizio Bonetti.

That same year, the Ferrari competed in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, driven by Diez Villaroel, M. Marsh and Carl Rosenblad. After a strong run, the car was unfortunately forced to retire towards the end of the race following a broken driveshaft.

Chassis 2410 remained with its original owner from new until its acquisition by GTC. It was subsequently sold by us before recently returning to our collection.

With its Michelotto provenance, significant period racing history, race victories, pole position and participation in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, chassis 2410 represents a particularly interesting example of the Ferrari F430 GTC and an important piece of Ferrari’s modern GT racing history.
